Spin-orbit assisted superconductivity in few-layer systems

I introduce the transition-metal dichalcogenides based few-layer superconductors.

Then I present the challenge of 2-fold symmetry observed experimentally, and the ways to resolve it.

Then I describe the orbital effects in films and challenges in finding the density of states in the magnetic field.

I finally discuss the topological properties of superconducting states protected by the spin-orbit coupling.
