Abstract

In this theoretical study, we presents  for the first time, to the best of our knowledge, the structural, electronic and elastic properties of perovskite Sr0.5Be0.5TiO3 type structure (Tetragonal), P4/mmm, space group, 123.using full potential linearized augmented plane wave (FP-LAPW) method on the basis of density functional theory (DFT) integrated in the Wien2k code . The generalized gradient approximation (GGA-PBEsol) and local density approximation has been used for the exchange correlation potential .The electronic properties represented by the band structure (BS) and DOS as well as the (PDOS) partial density of states, allowed to obtain  semiconductor compound, which have been calculated with mBJ approximation. The elastic constants were reported and we verified the stability conditions of our materials elastically. These theoretical results open the way for experimental and other theoretical studies of this compound.
