Why is lead dioxide metallic?

The electronic structure of lead dioxide (PbO2) has been studied by high resolution valence band X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and electron energy loss spectroscopy, supported by band structure calculations carried out within the framework of density functional theory. The metallic nature of PbO2...
