contents We predict thermoelectric and current rectification effects in hybrid junctions formed by Ising superconductors and materials hosting valley-polarized states. Both effects originate from the interplay of intrinsic Ising spin-orbit coupling, spin-splitting from an exchange or Zeeman field, and valley polarization. The resulting transport signatures provide experimentally accessible probes of valley-polarized states in van der Waals heterostructures, such as junctions of few-layer transition metal dichalcogenides and twisted bilayer or rhombohedral graphene.
