.[1][2] Compared to the other caesium oxides, this phase is less well studied,[3] but has been long present in the literature.[4] It can be created by thermal decomposition of caesium superoxide at 290 °C.[5]

The compound is often studied as an example of a Verwey type charge ordering transition at low temperatures.[6][7][8] There were some theoretical suggestions that Cs

would be a ferromagnetic half metal,[9] but along with the closely related rubidium sesquioxide, experimental results found a magnetically frustrated system.[1] Below about 200 K, the structure changes to tetragonal symmetry.[10] Electron paramagnetic resonance and nuclear magnetic resonance measurements show a complicated low temperature magnetic behavior that depends on the orientation of the oxygen dimers and superexchange through the caesium atoms.[11]
