Ga3NO3 is Spinel-like structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R-3m space group. There are three inequivalent Ga sites. In the first Ga site, Ga(1) is bonded to two equivalent N(1) and four equivalent O(1) atoms to form GaN2O4 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Ga(3)NO3 tetrahedra, edges with two equivalent Ga(2)O6 octahedra, and edges with four equivalent Ga(1)N2O4 octahedra. In the second Ga site, Ga(2) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form GaO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Ga(3)NO3 tetrahedra and edges with six equivalent Ga(1)N2O4 octahedra. In the third Ga site, Ga(3) is bonded to one N(1) and three equivalent O(1) atoms to form GaNO3 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent Ga(2)O6 octahedra and corners with nine equivalent Ga(1)N2O4 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 55-60°. N(1) is bonded to one Ga(3) and three equivalent Ga(1) atoms to form distorted corner-sharing NGa4 tetrahedra. O(1) is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one Ga(2), one Ga(3), and two equivalent Ga(1) atoms.
