BaSe has the lowest energy band gap among alkaline earth chalcogenides.[4]
Preparation
editBarium selenide can be obtained by the reduction of barium selenate in hydrogen flow:.[3][5]
- BaSeO4 + H2 → BaSe + 4 H2O
It can also be obtained by reacting selenium with barium carbonate or barium oxide at high temperature:[citation needed]
- 2 BaCO3 + 5 Se → 2 BaSe + 3 SeO2 + CO2
Related compounds
editBarium can also forms a series of polyselenide compounds, such as Ba2Se3, BaSe2 and BaSe3.[1]
