First principles calculations are employed to investigate both type I and II silicon clathrates. The phonon and infrared spectra of both types of clathrate are obtained. We find a localized vibrational mode of Si46 whose frequency is 375.0 cm(-1), where the vibration in the mode localizes in the hexagonal chain. The heat capacity of both clathrates is the same as that of the diamond phase Si (d-Si). When the temperature is lower than 100 K, the Debye temperatures of the clathrates are higher than that of d-Si; however, the Debye temperatures of both clathrates at high temperature (>100 K) are lower than that of the d-Si. The mean free paths (lambda) and thermal conductivities (kappa) of the clathrates are larger than those of d-Si at low temperature. The Seebeck coefficients (S) of the clathrates are higher than that of d-Si in the temperature interval 300-1000 K; however, both clathrates exhibit a lower value of sigma/tau when compared to the d-Si.
