- SeO$_{2}$ has been observed in three phases (Orosel, 2004):
- Downeyite, $\alpha$–SeO$_{2}$, Strukturbericht $C47$, the ground state,
- $\beta$–SeO$_{2}$, and
- $\gamma$–SeO$_{2}$ (this structure).
- The later two phases form at high pressures (up to 15GPa and 820°C) but upon quenching and slowly reducing the pressure they remain metastable under ambient conditions.
- Data for $\gamma$–SeO$_{2}$ was taken at 200K using powder diffraction data.
- Space group $Pmc2_{1}$ #26 allows an arbitrary choice for the origin of the $z$-axis. Here we follow (Orosel, 2004) and set $z_{7} = 0$ for the Se III (2b) site.
