Two-dimensional (2D) second-order topological insulators (SOTIs) have been extensively studied due to their unique feature of fractional charge at corners. In order realize such kind SOTI in natural materials, we reveal a class experimentally synthesized 1T-phase transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) monolayers as candidates SOTI. Taking the monolayer 1T-${\mathrm{PtSe}}_{2}$ an example, identify its topology by determining nonzero corner using first-principles calculations and symmetry...
