Figure 2

(a) Temperature dependence of in-plane resistivity \(\rho \) of the \(\hbox {2H-Pd}_{0.08} \hbox {TaSe}_2\) single crystal at zero magnetic field. The \(\rho \) starts to decrease (\(T^{\text {on}}_{c}\)) at 3.3 K and goes to zero (\(T^{0}_{c}\)) at 3 K. The inset shows the resistivity data below 30 K and a power law fitting (red dashed line) with \(\rho = \rho _0 + AT^2\), from which \(\rho _0\) is estimated as 0.149 \(\text {m}\Omega \text {cm}\). (b) Magnetic susceptibilities measured at H = 10 Oe applied parallel to the ab-plane in both zero field cooled (ZFC) and field cooled (FC) conditions. At 1.9 K, \(4\pi \chi \) is about 93%, showing nearly full Meissner shielding.
