In this article, we report the first successful preparation of single- and few-layers of tantalum diselenide (2H-TaSe₂) by mechanical exfoliation technique. Number of layers is confirmed by white light contrast spectroscopy and atomic force microscopy (AFM). Vibrational properties of the atomically thin layers of 2H-TaSe₂ are characterized by micro-Raman spectroscopy. Room temperature Raman measurements demonstrate MoS₂-like spectral features, which are reliable for thickness determination. E₁g ...[more]
