Measurements are reported of the refractive index and absorption coefficient of single crystals of SnSe 2 grown by the vapour transport technique. The energy gap is found to be 1·00±0·03 ev, due to forbidden indirect transitions. The crystals are n-type with an electron mobility of 33 cm 2 V −1 S −1 at room temperature. A value for the electron effective mass is estimated as (0·4±0·2) m 0 .
