Description

Electrical resistivity and diamagnetic susceptibility have been measured for high-quality single crystals of NbTe2. The superconducting transition is observed at Tc of 0.5 K. The transition to the superconducting state depends strongly on the current density. Susceptibility χparallel = M/H with applied magnetic fields parallel to layers in crystal is weak and the value of χparallel is two times smaller than the magnitude for perfect diamagnetism in a magnetic field of 0.5 Oe.
