Atomic-layer Rashba-type superconductor protected by dynamic spin-momentum locking
The effect of Rashba spin orbit coupling (SOC) on superconductivity remains elusive. Here, the authors report largely enhanced in-plane upper critical magnetic field due to Rashba SOC induced dynamic spin-momentum locking on the surfaces of an atomic-layer superconductor.
