@JonathanRuhman It may also be that we don't leave the FE state at all since this is dictated collectively by the entire layer, and not displacement of a single atom in the lattice
Two competing phenomena in the same material? That's right! You can find both superconductivity and ferroelectricity in a unique quantum crystal studied at Columbia.

Working with a quantum crystal called molybdenum ditelluride, PhD student @_apoorvj and colleagues @PhysicsColumbia, @CUSEAS, @UWMadEngr, @UMN_SPA find superconductivity AND ferroelectricity in the same material. https://t.co/ISZy32Nq1G
@boundstate Mostly AuPd for me but have worked with Au and Pd too. Pt has been troubling to WSe2 folks - lower yield with devices. They claim cracks while transfer
