Superconductivity in anti-PbO-type iron chalcogenides Fe1+xTe1-ySey (x=0, 0.1, y=0.1-0.4) depends on the amount (x) of interstitial iron atoms located between the FeTe1-ySey layers. Non-superconducting samples of nominal Fe1.1Te1-ySey convert to superconductors with critical temperatures up to 14 K after annealing at 300 degrees C in an oxygen atmosphere. The process is irreversible upon subsequent hydrogen annealing. Magnetic measurements are consistent with the formation of iron oxides, suggesting that oxygen annealing preferably extracts interstitial iron from Fe1+xTe1-ySey, which interferes with superconductivity.
