22. int, the boundaries between the intra- and inter-bilayer regions have to be specified. We have identified them with the charged planes corresponding to the oxygens.
23. In the absence of interlayer currents, the input frequencies would correspond to the LO-frequencies while the frequencies renormalized according to the model equations would correspond to the TO-ones.
