Rubidium telluride is the inorganic compound with the formula Rb2Te. It is a yellow-green powder that melts at either 775 °C or 880 °C (two different values have been reported). It is an obscure material of minor academic interest.[1]
Like other alkali metal chalcogenides, RbTe is prepared from the elements in liquid ammonia.[2]
Rubidium telluride is used in some space-based UV detectors.[citation needed]
