Iron selenide (FeSe) is an inorganic compound characterized by its distinct properties and structure. It typically appears as a black or dark gray solid and is known for its layered crystal structure, which can influence its electronic and magnetic properties. FeSe is a semiconductor and has garnered attention in the field of superconductivity, particularly at low temperatures. The compound is relatively stable under ambient conditions but can react with moisture, leading to the formation of selenic acid and other products. Its solubility in water is limited, and it can be synthesized through various methods, including solid-state reactions and chemical vapor deposition. Iron selenide is also of interest in materials science and nanotechnology due to its potential applications in electronic devices and energy storage systems. Safety precautions should be taken when handling FeSe, as selenium compounds can be toxic, and proper laboratory protocols should be followed to mitigate exposure risks.
