We have studied the masses for fully open-flavor tetraquark states and
(
) with quantum numbers
. We systematically construct all diquark–antiquark interpolating currents and calculate the two-point correlation functions and spectral densities in the framework of QCD sum rule method. Our calculations show that the masses are about
GeV for the
tetraquark states and
GeV for the
tetraquarks. The masses of
tetraquarks are below the thresholds of
and
final states for the scalar and axial-vector channels respectively. The
tetraquark states with
lie below the
and
thresholds. Such low masses for these possible tetraquark states indicate that they can only decay via weak interaction and thus are very narrow and stable.
