In this letter we show that superconducting Fe1.01Se undergoes a structural transition at 90 K from a tetragonal to an orthorhombic phase but that non-superconducting Fe1.03Se does not. Further, high resolution electron microscopy study at low temperatures reveals an unexpected additional modulation of the crystal structure of the superconducting phase involving displacements of the Fe atoms, and that the non-superconducting material shows a distinct, complex nanometer-scale structural modulation. Finally, we show that magnetism is not the driving force for the phase transition in the superconducting phase.
