Abstract

We demonstrated a unique copper-rich open-framework chalcogenide constructed from icosahedral Cu₈Se₁₃ and octahedral Cu₄Se₆ nanoclusters connected to each other through a SnSe₃(Se₂) bridging unit. The specific copper-rich composition gives rise to a narrow band gap and photoelectrical responsive properties in the infrared range.
