AsLiSe2 is a stable, semiconducting ternary compound formed from arsenic, lithium, and selenium.
About AsLiSe2
AsLiSe2 is a ternary inorganic compound composed of arsenic, lithium, and selenium. As a thermodynamically stable phase located on the convex hull, it represents a robust structural arrangement within its chemical system.
This material exhibits semiconducting electronic character, making it a subject of interest for fundamental studies in solid-state physics. With multiple reported structural configurations, it serves as a versatile candidate for exploring complex coordination environments in chalcogenide materials.
Key Properties
Cross-validated computational properties for AsLiSe2, aggregated across 3 databases.
Band GapEnergy needed to move an electron from the valence band to the conduction band. Lower or zero values tend to behave more metallic; larger gaps are more insulating or semiconducting.
Energy Above HullThermodynamic distance from the most stable set of competing phases. 0 eV/atom is on the convex hull; small positive values may still be experimentally accessible.
StabilityA plain-language summary of the best reported energy-above-hull result. It reflects whether the lowest-energy structure is on, near, or far from the stability hull.
StructuresCount of reported calculated crystal structures for this formula, including alternate polymorphs, source databases, and observed space groups.
Cross-Source DFT Agreement
How well independent DFT databases agree on the thermodynamics of AsLiSe2. Tight agreement means computed properties can be trusted without re-running calculations.
Only 1 independent DFT source (materials_project) reports a hull energy for AsLiSe2, so cross-source agreement can't be assessed yet.
Reported Structures
