Optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR) experiments in crystalline As2Se3 provide detailed evidence for the existence of triplet excitonic states in some layered chalcogenide crystals. Comparisons with analogous optical absorption, luminescence, and ODMR measurements in glassy chalcogenides, such as As2Se3, As2S3, and alloys of these two glasses with copper suggest the presence of similar excitonic states in these materials.
