Strain-dependent Bi2Se3 films of various thickness are grown via a self-organized ordering process. As the film thickness decreases from 8 to 2 QL, significant changes of the Fermi level and bandgap were observed. Our results provides an understanding of critical effect on the change in band structure caused by the structural deformation in a topological insulator.
