Recently, LTA-Se(1–8) samples with 1–8 Se atoms per cavity (simplified unit cell, large + sodalite cage) obtained via adsorption at the temperature of ∼450 °C were reported. It was shown that single Se8 or Se12 ring are formed in LTA cavities, Se8/Se12 concentration ratio decreasing an increase loading density. Contrary, present work, using vapour ∼550 °C, we succeeded encapsulation ∼17 (LTA-Se...
