Abstract
The reaction between.graphite and liquid potassium, containing small a mounts of sulphur or selenium, leads to the synthesis of new lamellar compounds, of which the three-layered intercalated sheets can be regar ded as potassium sulfide or selenide slices, being arranged between th e graphene planes. These slices retain the hexagonal symmetry that the y possess in the 3D binary chalcogenides, thanks to some adaptations. Particularly, they become commensurate with respect to the graphene pl anes.
