Abstract
Single crystals of FexTaS2 (x≈0.28) are metallic, ferromagnetic (Tc=73±5 °K), and have a large coercive force of 55 kOe at 4.2 °K. Mössbauer measurements show the iron to be high‐spin Fe2+, with a distribution of hyperfine fields at low temperatures. Electron microscopic observations, together with these results, suggest the presence of iron clusters.Keywords
