The layered transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have raised considerable interest in the past decades for both fundamental physics and low-dimensional nanodevice applications. Recently, intriguing phenomena of Ising superconductivity and quantum metallic state have been reported in two-dimensional (2D) 4Ha-TaSe2 nanodevices. Here, we report the magnetic field induced superconductor–metal transition (SMT) in mechanical exfoliated 4Ha-TaSe2 nanodevices with thickness down to 2.5 nm. We observe the quantum Griffiths singularity (QGS) of SMT in thin 4Ha-TaSe2 nanodevices by performing ultralow temperature transport measurements and activated scaling analysis. With increasing the thickness of TaSe2 nanodevice to 10.6 nm, the signature of magnetoresistance crossing region can hardly be detected, revealing the thickness dependence of SMT. In this procedure, the disorder strength plays a dominant role. This work enriches the platform for studying QGS and may stimulate further investigations on the correlation between different novel quantum phenomena in the same 2D superconducting system.
