Abstract

Intercalation of lithium and ammonia into the layered semiconductor Bi2Se3 proceeds via a

hyperextended (by > 60 %) ammonia-rich intercalate, to eventually produce a layered compound

with lithium amide intercalated between the bismuth selenide layers which offer scope for further

chemical manipulation.
