Bi2Se3 is one of the promising materials in thermoelectric devices and very useful out of environmental concern due to its efficiency to perform at room temperature. Based on the first-principles calculation of density functional theory (DFT) by using CASTEP computer code, structural and electronic properties of Bi2Se3 were investigated. The calculation is conducted within the exchange-correlation of local density approximation (LDA) and generalized gradient approximation within the revision of Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof (GGA-PBE) functional. It was found that the results are consistent with previous works of theoretical study with small percentage difference. LDA exchange-correlation functional method is more accurate and have a better agreement than GGA-PBE to describe the structural properties of Bi2Se3 which consist of lattice parameters. LDA functional also shown more accurate electronic structure of Bi2Se3 that consist of band structure and density of states (DOS) which consistent with most previous theoretical works with small percentage difference. This study proves the reliability of CASTEP computer code and show LDA exchange-correlation functional is more accurate in describing the nature of Bi2Se3 compared to the other functionals.

The structural and electronic properties of BN(5, 5) and C(5, 5) nanotubes under pressure are studied by using first principles calculations. In our study range, BN(5, 5) undergoes obvious elliptical distortion, while for C(5, 5) the cross section first becomes an ellipse and then, under further pressure, is flattened. The band gap of BN(5, 5) decreases with increasing pressure, which is inverse to that of zinc blende BN, whereas for C(5, 5) the metallicity is always preserved under high pressure. The population of charge density indicates that intertube bonding is formed under pressure. We also find that BN(5, 5) may collapse, and a new polymer material based on C(5, 5) is formed by applying pressure.
