The development of an interatomic potential for alkali perchlorates an
d phosphates is presented. The potentials are fitted to sodium perchlo
rate (space group, Cmcm) and calcium phosphate and are transferred to
another phase of sodium perchlorate (space group, <F(4)over bar 3m>) a
nd also the perchlorates of caesium, potassium and rubidium and to the
phosphates of strontium and magnesium. The calculated structure and e
lastic constants are compared with experimental data.
