VS₂ and VSe₂ have attracted particular attention among the transition metals dichalcogenides because of their promising physical properties concerning magnetic ordering, charge density wave (CDW), emergent superconductivity, etc., which are very sensitive to stoichiometry and dimensionality reduction. Yanson point-contact (PC) spectroscopic study reveals metallic and nonmetallic states in VS₂ PCs, as well as a magnetic phase transition, was detected near 20 K. The rare PC spectra, where the magnetic phase transition was not visible, show a broad maximum of around 20 mV, likely connected with electron-phonon interaction (EPI). The PC spectra of VSe₂ demonstrate metallic behavior, which allowed us to detect features associated with EPI and CDW transition. The Kondo effect appeared for both compounds, apparently due to interlayer vanadium ions. Besides, the resistive switching was observed in PCs on VSe₂ between a low resistive, mainly metallic-type state, and a high resistive nonmetallic-type state by applying bias voltage (about 0.4 V). Reverse switching occurs by applying a voltage of opposite polarity (about 0.4 V). The reason may be the alteration of stoichiometry in the PC core due to the displacement of V ions to interlayer under a high electric field. The observed resistive switching characterizes VSe₂ as a potential material, e.g., for non-volatile resistive RAM, neuromorphic engineering, and other nanoelectronic applications. Per contra, VS₂ attracts attention as a rare layered van der Waals compound with magnetic transition.
