In this paper we report the results of calculations of the energies associated with the segregation of boron on the [Formula: see text] surface. These calculations have been carried out using the plane wave pseudopotential density functional code fhi98md in a periodic slab formalism. The segregation energy is predicted to be -0.77 eV. This prediction is intermediate between the "experimentally determined" values of -0.33 eV and -0.48 eV, and the values of -1.83 eV and -2.10 eV determined from AM1 cluster calculations. Additional information has been obtained by performing ab initio density functional cluster calculations using the Gaussian98 code. These latter results indicate that the AM1 calculations significantly overestimate the segregation energy of boron on the [Formula: see text] surface. They also provide strong support for the fhi98md calculations.

The complete 31P NMR chemical shift tensors for 22 inorganic phosphates obtained from ab initio computation are found to correspond closely to experimentally obtained parameters. The cases where correspondence is significantly improved upon geometry optimization point to the crystal structures requiring correction.
