Sm3CuSe6 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are four inequivalent Sm3+ sites. In the first Sm3+ site, Sm3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight Se2- atoms. There are a spread of Sm–Se bond distances ranging from 2.87–3.16 Å. In the second Sm3+ site, Sm3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight Se2- atoms. There are a spread of Sm–Se bond distances ranging from 2.97–3.13 Å. In the third Sm3+ site, Sm3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight Se2- atoms. There are a spread of Sm–Se bond distances ranging from 2.93–3.17 Å. In the fourth Sm3+ site, Sm3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight Se2- atoms. There are a spread of Sm–Se bond distances ranging from 2.87–3.13 Å. Cu3+ is bonded to four Se2- atoms to form distorted edge-sharing CuSe4 trigonal pyramids. There are a spread of Cu–Se bond distances ranging from 2.40–2.59 Å. There are seven inequivalent Se2- sites. In the first Se2- site, Se2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to four Sm3+ and two equivalent Cu3+ atoms. In the second Se2- site, Se2- is bonded to four Sm3+ atoms to form distorted corner-sharing SeSm4 trigonal pyramids. In the third Se2- site, Se2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to four Sm3+ and two Se2- atoms. There are one shorter (2.59 Å) and one longer (2.96 Å) Se–Se bond lengths. In the fourth Se2- site, Se2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to four Sm3+ atoms. In the fifth Se2- site, Se2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to four Sm3+, one Cu3+, and one Se2- atom. In the sixth Se2- site, Se2- is bonded to four Sm3+ atoms to form distorted corner-sharing SeSm4 trigonal pyramids. In the seventh Se2- site, Se2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to four Sm3+ and one Cu3+ atom.
