Abstract
A method of calculating the surface energy of an ionic crystal is outlined and illustrated by application to the {110} face of crystals having the fluorite structure. Numerical results are given for CaF2, SrF2, and BaF2, and are compared with values calculated previously for the {111} face of these crystals.Keywords
