Erbium(III) selenide is an inorganic compound with a chemical formula of Er2Se3.

Preparation

Erbium(III) selenide can be obtained by the reaction of erbium and selenium:

2 Er + 3 Se → Er2Se3

It can also be prepared by reacting erbium oxide and hydrogen selenide at high temperature.[3]

Er2O3 + 3 H2Se → Er2Se3 + 3 H2O

Properties

Erbium(III) selenide is an orthorhombic crystal with a Sc2S3 structure and a space group of Fddd.[2] It reacts with magnesium selenide at 1000 °C to obtain MgEr2Se4.[4]
