From the past few years simulation methods widely used in scientific and technological research. The SRIM 2013 code is used here to simulate 1.25 MeV Co-ion implantation on ZnO, ZnO:S, and ZnO:S/Si thin films. Atomic displacements, energy loss, and defect formation are common occurrences when ions interact with matter. Dopants such as sulfur and the presence of silicon substrate greatly influence the stopping power and damage profile. Comparison of the results with available data allowed us to assess differences in defect formation and ion interaction behavior.
