NMR study of 181Ta in the commensurate charge density wave state of 1T-TaSe2 and 1T-TaS2

The 181Ta NMR in 1T-TaSe2 and 1T-TaS2 has been studied at 4.2K using single crystals as well as powders in order to obtain detailed information of the superlattice structure in the commensurate charge density wave state. The results are discussed on the basis of the star-shaped cluster model and an effect due to the three-dimensional (3D) order of clusters is pointed out.
