Superconductors with time-reversal-symmetric SOC exhibit universal mirage gaps near the SOC scale for perpendicular magnetic fields, while parallel fields cause Zeeman splitting near the superconducting gap.

abstract
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-orbit 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.

First-order transitions emerge in weak-ISOC superconductors under large exchange fields, with the gap equation yielding only the supercooling field and two in-gap coherence peaks appearing as weak-ISOC mirage-gap signatures.
