Van der Waals (vdW) ferromagnets are an important class of materials for spintronics applications. The recent discovery of atomically vdW magnets CrI₃ and Cr₂Ge₂Te₆ has triggered a renaissance in the area of two-dimensional (2D) magnetism. Herein we systematically studied 2H-Mn_0.28TaS₂ single crystal, a 2D vdW ferromagnet with T_c ~ 82.3K, and a large in-plane magnetic anisotropy. Mn K-edge x-ray absorption spectroscopy was measured to provide information on its electronic state and local atomic environment. The detailed magnetic isotherms measured in the vicinity of T_c indicates that the spin coupling inside 2H-Mn_0.28TaS₂ is of a 3D Heisenberg type coupled with the attractive long-range interaction between spins that decay as J(r) ≈ r^–4.85. Both resistivity ρ(T) and thermopower S(T) exhibit anomalies near T_c, confirming that the hole-type transport carriers strongly interact with local moments. Furthermore, an unusual angle-dependent magnetoresistance is further observed, suggesting a possible field-induced novel magnetic structure.
