In recent years non-centrosymmetric superconductors have attracted increasing attention as they reveal various properties of unconventional superconductivity. With the absence of inversion symmetry and an asymmetric Rashba-like spin-orbit coupling a mixed spin-singlet and spin-triplet pairing state is predicted for these materials. In our talk we focus on polycrystalline non-centrosymmetric Nb0.18Re0.82. Studies on the upper critical field of thin-film micrometric strips have shown that the Pauli-contribution might play a minor role in terms of the underlying pair breaking mechanism. In addition, FMR measurements on NbRe/Co/NbRe trilayers suggest that the observed Gilbert damping can be explained by assuming a spin-pumping scenario across a spin-triplet S-F-S interface. However, the SC order parameter of NbRe is still under debate. We present first low-temperature scanning tunneling spectroscopy measurements on pure NbRe as well as NbRe/Co bilayers fabricated by magnetron sputtering. With a high spatial and energy resolution we probe the LDOS for different film thicknesses to get insights into the intrinsic pairing symmetry of the superconductor.
