Abstract The ternary transition-metal telluride TaCo$_{2}$Te$_{2}$ has been reported to host a topological band structure characterized by a nontrivial Berry phase. While transport properties have been investigated in both bulk crystals and thick flakes ($>$150 nm), studies on thin flakes ($< 100 $ nm) of this van der Waals (vdW) material remain scarce. We investigate the low-temperature transport properties of TaCo$_{2}$Te$_{2}$ thin flakes by fabricating Hall bar devices on mechanically exfoliated flakes with different thicknesses (15 nm and 90 nm). Temperature-dependent resistance measurements reveal that the 15-nm-thick sample exhibits a lower residual resistivity ratio and Debye temperature compared to the 90-nm-thick one. Magnetotransport measurements under perpendicular magnetic fields up to $\pm 14$ T demonstrate lower magnetoresistance, carrier concentration, and mobility in the thinner sample, suggesting increased phonon scattering due to defect-induced disorder. Remarkably, pronounced Shubnikov-de Haas (SdH) oscillations are observed above 8 T in both samples in spite of the defect-induced disorder. Analysis of the Landau fan diagram yields a non-zero Berry phase in both samples, indicating the existence of a topologically non-trivial phase in TaCo$_{2}$Te$_{2}$ thin flakes. Our findings establish TaCo$_{2}$Te$_{2}$ as a promising candidate for exploring intrinsic topological states in layered materials.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
