Superconductivity at 4 K in Pd-Deficient Layered Ta2Pd x S6

In the present short letter, we report on the low dimensional 4d and 5d transition metals-chalcogenide based compounds i.e., Ta2PdxS6, showing semiconducting to superconducting transition at around 4K with their upper critical fields outside the Pauli paramagnetic limit. It seems couple of different superconducting phases do exist in these new set of compounds. Our short letter in this regards is thought provoking, asking to explore various unearthed possible new superconducting phases in (Nb/Ta)2Pdx(S/Se/Te)y systems.
