Abstract: A novel ternary met al selenide bipotassium seleno-stannates(K2Sn2Se4) was synthesized by employing the molten-salt reaction of reactants at 550 ℃ for 7 days. The crystal crystallized in the space group I4cm with unit cell parameters a=0.815 24(12) nm, b=0.815 24(12) nm, c=0.671 52(13) nm. K2Sn2Se4 contains one-dimensional covelent chains 1[Sn2Se4] 2-anions along c-axis direction and separated by K cations. A reflectance spectroscopy study reveals the nature of semiconductor with an energy gap of 1.7 eV.
