Dear Prof. Stefano de Gironcoli and QE users,<br><br>So one would expect to have anisotropic born charges with off-diagonal elements for unit cell with R-3m space group.<br>However, in PHYSICAL REVIEW B 73, 155114 ͑2006͒ , NaHF2 have zero values for off-diagonal<br>
elements of born-charges.<br>xx<br><br><br> and similary in CuAlO2 with same space group, i have found zero values of off-diagonal elements of born tensor.<br><br><br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Sonu Kumar<br><br>IITD
