Abstract

An assumption of the possible existence of a kind of condensed state possessing metallic conduction while at the same time being made up of electrically polar unit cells is drawn from an analysis of the specific features of electron diffraction in some metal alloys. Examples of alloys in which such a state may be realized are presented.
