Abstract  The density functional calculations of the energy band structure and density of state for the tetragonal PbO-type phase $\alpha$-FeSe and hexagonal NiAs-type phase $\beta$-FeSe are reported in this paper. The structural phase transition from tetragonal to hexagonal FeSe under high pressure is investigated, it is found that the calculated transition pressure for the $\alpha$ → $\beta$ phase transformation is 8.5 GPa. Some fluctuations in the transition pressure maybe occurred by different external factors such as temperature and stress condition. There is about 17% volume collapse accompanying the $\alpha$ → $\beta$ phase transformation.
Keywords:  FeSe      density functional calculations      phase transition
