Mono- and diselenides such as FeSe, FeSe2 and NbSe2 display many interesting and diverse properties. For example, FeSe is a well-known nematic superconductor, whereas NbSe2 exhibits superconductivity below Tc = 7.2 K and a charge-density-wave (CDW) phase below TCDW = 32 K. Optimizing growth parameters, we have grown large and homogeneous single crystals of FeSe, FeSe2 and NbSe2 via chemical vapor transport. Samples were characterized via x-ray diffraction, energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy and electrical resistance. In particular, we have determined the change of electrical resistance of NbSe2 under strain, i.e., its elastoresistance, around TCDW, using piezostacks and a cryogenic strain cell. A subtle anomaly in the linear elastoresistance at TCDW is observed. The effect of large elastic strains on the resistance will also be discussed.
