abstract = {The H$_2$Se molecule and the van der Waals compound
(H$_2$Se)$_2$H$_2$ are both unstable upon room temperature
compression, dissociating into their constituent elements
above 22 GPa. Through a series of high pressure-high
temperature diamond anvil cell experiments, we report the
unexpected formation of a novel compound, SeH$_2$(H$_2$)$_2$
at pressures above 94 GPa. X-ray diffraction reveals the
metallic sublattice to adopt a tetragonal (I4$_1$/amd)
structure with density functional theory calculations
finding a small distortion due to the orientation of H$_2$
molecules. The structure comprises of a network of zig-zag
H-Se chains with quasi-molecular H$_2$ molecular units
hosted in the prismatic Se interstices. Electrical
resistance measurements demonstrate that SeH$_2$(H$_2$)$_2$
is non-metallic up to pressures of 148 GPa. Investigations
into the Te-H system up to pressures of 165 GPa and
2000 K yielded no compound formation. The combined results
suggest that the high pressure phase behavior of each
chalcogen hydride is unique and more complex than previously
thought.},
