Using density functional theory with the spin–orbit coupling included we analyze the bulk and surface electronic structure of SnBi4Te7ternary compound. It was revealed that this material is a strong topological insulator with a bulk band gap of about 100meV and a robust surface state around the Γ¯ point. We find that the topological nature of the surface state remains robust with different terminations of the surface.
