Europium(III) selenide

(Redirected from Europium sesquiselenide)

Europium(III) selenide is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula Eu2Se3. It is one of the selenides of europium.[1] It can be obtained by the reaction of selenium and europium at high temperature.[2] It co-melts with germanium diselenide to form Eu2GeSe5 and Eu2Ge2Se7.[3] It reacts with uranium and uranium diselenide at high temperature to obtain EuU2Se5.[4]
