We study unconventional superconductivity in a two-dimensional locally noncentrosymmetric triangular lattice. The model is relevant to bilayer transition metal dichalcogenides with 2H$_b$ stacking structure, for example. The superconducting instability is analyzed by solving the linearized Eliashberg equation within the random phase approximation. We show that ferromagnetic fluctuations are dominant owing to the existence of disconnected Fermi pockets near van Hove singularity, and hence odd-parity spin-triplet superconductivity is favored. In the absence of the spin-orbit coupling, we find that odd-parity $f$-wave superconducting state is stabilized in a wide range of carrier density and interlayer coupling. Furthermore, we investigate impacts of the layer-dependent staggered Rashba and Zeeman spin-orbit coupling on the superconductivity. Multiple odd-parity superconducting phase diagrams are obtained as a function of the spin-orbit coupling and Coulomb interaction. Especially, a topological chiral $p$-wave pairing state is stabilized in the presence of a moderate Zeeman spin-orbit coupling. Our results shed light on a possibility of odd-parity superconductivity in various ferromagnetic van der Waals materials.

A three-component Ginzburg-Landau theory for a triplet pairing is developed to understand the observed multiple phases in a new superconductor UTe$_2$ under pressure. Near the critical pressure $P_{rm cr}$=0.2GPa where all components are perfectly de
generate the three successive superconducting transitions are predicted to occur. The $p$-wave pairing symmetry realized in UTe$_2$ is characterized by non-unitarity and chirality with point nodes, thus time reversal symmetry spontaneously broken.
In this work, we review the results of several recent works on the experimental and theoretical studies of monolayer superconducting transition metal dichalcogenides (TMD) such as superconducting MoS2 and NbSe2. We show how the strong Ising spin-orbi
t coupling (SOC), a special type of SOC which pins electron spins to out-of-plane directions, can affect the superconducting properties of the materials. Particularly, we discuss how the in-plane upper critical fields of the materials can be strongly enhanced by Ising SOC and how TMD materials can be used to engineer topological superconductors and nodal topological superconductors which support Majorana fermions.
The crystal structure of a material creates a periodic potential that electrons move through giving rise to the electronic band structure of the material. When two-dimensional materials are stacked, the twist angle between the layers becomes an addit
ional degree freedom for the resulting heterostructure. As this angle changes, the electronic band structure is modified leading to the possibility of flat bands with localized states and enhanced electronic correlations. In transition metal dichalcogenides, flat bands have been theoretically predicted to occur for long moire wavelengths over a range of twist angles around 0 and 60 degrees giving much wider versatility than magic angle twisted bilayer graphene. Here we show the existence of a flat band in the electronic structure of 3{deg} and 57.5{deg} twisted bilayer WSe2 samples using scanning tunneling spectroscopy. Direct spatial mapping of wavefunctions at the flat band energy have shown that the flat bands are localized differently for 3{deg} and 57.5{deg}, in excellent agreement with first-principle density functional theory calculations.
Van der Waals (vdW) materials have greatly expanded our design space of heterostructures by allowing individual layers to be stacked at non-equilibrium configurations, for example via control of the twist angle. Such heterostructures not only combine
characteristics of the individual building blocks, but can also exhibit emergent physical properties absent in the parent compounds through interlayer interactions. Here we report on a new family of emergent, nanometer-thick, semiconductor 2D ferroelectrics, where the individual constituents are well-studied non-ferroelectric monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), namely WSe2, MoSe2, WS2, and MoS2. By stacking two identical monolayer TMDs in parallel, we obtain electrically switchable rhombohedral-stacking configurations, with out-of-plane polarization that is flipped by in-plane sliding motion. Fabricating nearly-parallel stacked bilayers enables the visualization of moire ferroelectric domains as well as electric-field-induced domain wall motion with piezoelectric force microscopy (PFM). Furthermore, by using a nearby graphene electronic sensor in a ferroelectric field transistor geometry, we quantify the ferroelectric built-in interlayer potential, in good agreement with first-principles calculations. The novel semiconducting ferroelectric properties of these four new TMDs opens up the possibility of studying the interplay between ferroelectricity and their rich electric and optical properties.
Exciton condensation in an electron-hole bilayer system of monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides is analyzed at three different levels of theory to account for screening and quasiparticle renormalization. The large effective masses of the transi
tion metal dichalcogenides place them in a strong coupling regime. In this regime, mean field (MF) theory with either an unscreened or screened interlayer interaction predicts a room temperature condensate. Interlayer and intralayer interactions renormalize the quasiparticle dispersion, and this effect is included in a GW approximation. The renormalization reverses the trends predicted from the unscreened or screened MF theories. In the strong coupling regime, intralayer interactions have a large impact on the magnitude of the order parameter and its functional dependencies on effective mass and carrier density.
