The structural properties of jadeite are investigated using plane-wave pseudopotential density functional theory method. As a function of pressure, the monoclinic cell parameters were calculated and the compressibility coefficients are 0.0025, 0.0024 and 0.0025 GPa-1, respectively. The bond length, bond angle, and distortion variation were studied in order to obtain the information of polyhedral compression. The Birch-Murnaghan equation of state was considered in the theoretical calculations of E-V and P-V data for the bulk modulus B0, which were compared with the result based on the linear compressibilities. Comparison between the calculated B0 values and the experimental data suggested that the model provides reasonable insights into crystallographic and physical properties of jadeite.
