Suggestions/requests

[edit]
  • It says "should not exist in theory" so that theory must be wrong/inapplicable. Should just replace that with "are unexpected" ?
    • changed
  • Can we explain how Anderson & Blount explained their possible existence despite the charge redistribution in metals ?
    • Now I have consulted their paper this is included
  • Is LaNiO3 only a polar metal in thin layers ? If so why ?
    • So far only found to be so in thin layers on that 111 crystal face, so it probably needs to be strained to work.
  • Can we say if LiOsO3 is found or predicted to be a polar metal in the bulk, or only in thin layers ?
    • is found to be a polar metal in powder, polychrystalline or single crystal, thin film not tested yet.
