Bismuth dioxide selenide, Bi2O2Se, is a thermoelectric material that exhibits low thermal conductivity. Detailed understanding of the compounds band structure is important in order to realize the potential of this narrow band semiconductor. The electronic band structure of Bi2O2Se is examined using first - principles density functional theory and a primitive unit cell. The compound is found to be a narrow band gap semiconductor with very flat bands at the valence band maximum (VBM). VBM locates at points off symmetry lines. The energy surface at VBM is very flat. Nevertheless, these heavy bands do not reduce drastically the thermoelectric power factor. | Valance band maximum and thermoelectric properties of Bi2O2Se First-principles calculations
