Superconducting dome in doped 2D superconductors with broken inversion symmetry

We analyze an unconventional inter-subband paired phase in a 2D doped superconductor considering both systems with the inversion symmetry and with the inversion symmetry broken. We find that for a centro-symmetric system the inter-subband pairing can appear in the high concentration regime when the repulsive Coulomb interaction leads to the nearly degenerate symmetric and antisymmetric state. We discuss in detail the mutual competition between the intra- and inter-subband paired phase. For systems with broken inversion symmetry, we find that the critical temperature has a characteristic domelike shape as a function of the asymmetry parameter, which is explained as resulting form the inter-subbband pairing. This results is discussed in the context of the domelike shape of $T_c$ in the LaAlO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ interface.
