The oxide superconductorhas two-dimensional (2D)layers consisting of edge-shared triangular prisms. This structure is a unique oxide analog to-type transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), yet its electronic properties have not received any significant attention. Usingepitaxial films, we find the 2D superconductivity associated with the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless transition and a large anisotropy of the upper critical field. The temperature-independent anisotropy strongly suggests single-band superconductivity, in contrast to TMDs. Correspondingly, the largely isolated singlestate revealed by synchrotron-radiation photoelectron spectroscopy and density functional theory is explained in terms of strong ligand field splitting. These results indicate that superconductivity inoccurs in 2Dlayers with a narrow and correlated single band, reminiscent of superconductivity in cuprates. Our study provides insight into the unconventional correlation in the Hubbard system with a 2D triangular lattice.
