The ferro- magnetism is observed up to room temperature and is with weak temperature dependence. By combining X-ray diffraction, Rutherford backseattering/channelling, Raman scattering, and electron-spin resonance spectroscopy, supperconducting quantum interference device, displacement per atom, we measured tile lattice damage accumulation with increasing flu- ences. A defect complex, i.e., Ti3＋ on the substitutional accoiflpanied by oxygen vacancies, has been identified in the irradiated Ti02. This kind of defect complex results in a local （TiO6-x） stretching Raman mode. We elucidate that Ti3＋ with one unpaired 3d electron provide the local magnetic moments.展开更多
