7. It is worth noting that the ferroelectric transition temperature for (Formula presented) [see M. E. Lines and A. M. Glass, Principles and Applications of Ferroelectrics and Related Materials (Clarendon Press, Oxford, 1977)], is among the highest ones reported for any ferroelectric. This makes such compounds interesting candidates for ferroelectric data storage devices.
8. First ARPES results of (Formula presented) have been published previously in D. H. Lu, C. S. Gopinath, M. Schmidt, T. R. Cummins, N. Nücker, S. Schuppler, and F. Lichtenberg, Physica C 282-287, 995 (1997).

18. Note that although Nb (Formula presented) or Nb (Formula presented) NEXAFS could, in principle, provide direct information on the unoccupied Nb (Formula presented) DOS at (Formula presented) one would gain very little as the associated core-hole lifetime broadenings are 1.7 and 2.1 eV, respectively, in effect washing out any details of the electronic structure. Besides, the (Formula presented) edges for elements with (Formula presented) are known to be fairly weak. See M. O. Krause, J. H. Oliver, J. Phys. Chem. Ref. Data 8, 329 (1979).

23. This is illustrated in, e.g., A. Fujimori, I. Hase, H. Namatame, Y. Fujishima, Y. Tokura, H. Eisaki, S. Uchida, K. Takegahara, and F. M. F. de Groot, Phys. Rev. Lett. 69, 1796 (1992), where for the (Formula presented) TM compound (Formula presented) no correlation effects are observed in UPS, in contrast to (Formula presented) TM compounds like (Formula presented) and (Formula presented)
24. For oxygen doping, the rigid band assumption would be much less justified due to the structural changes associated with the intercalation; this was shown theoretically for the related family (Formula presented) See N. Shanthi and D. D. Sarma, Phys. Rev. B 57, 2153 (1998).

29. The suppression of spectral weight at (Formula presented) for (Formula presented) observed in ARPES by Denlinger et al., see above, has very recently been called into question by a new ARPES study: J. Xue et. al Phys. Rev. Lett. 83, 1235 (1999).
