Confirmation of Mcmillan's Concept of Discommensurations in 2h-Tantalum-Diselenide
We have studied the ('77)Se nuclear magnetic resonance spectra in a single crystal sample of 2H-TaSe(,2) to study the charge density wave (CDW) in this compound and to test a concept put forth by McMillan. We compare the temperature dependence of the NMR lineshape obtained by Couturie from 4.2 K to …
