Abstract
Magnetic susceptibility, electrical resistivity, Mössbauer effect (ME) and transmission electron microscopy measurements in single crystals of the metal intercalated layer compounds FexTaS2 (0.20⩽x⩽0.34) are reported. The compounds are metallic, ferromagnetic and have large coercive force. ME measurements show the iron to be high-spin Fe2+, with a distribution of hyperfine fields at low temperatures. Transmission electron microscopy suggests the existence of clusters. These results may explain the diversity of magnetic preperties on nonstoichiometric intercalated compounds such as FexTaS2.
