High Co doping concentration Ti1-xCoxO2 magnetic semiconductor films were prepared by rf co-sputtering and then annealed for 2 hours at 200℃, 300℃ and 400℃ respectively. Microstructure and composition analysis by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) indicated that the films were in the metastable state and the annealing has large effect on their microstructure, composition and magnetism.
