ZnGeO3 is Ilmenite structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R-3 space group. Zn(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent O(1) atoms. Ge(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form edge-sharing GeO6 octahedra. O(1) is bonded in a distorted see-saw-like geometry to two equivalent Zn(1) and two equivalent Ge(1) atoms.
ZnGeO3 is Ilmenite structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R-3 space group. Zn(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent O(1) atoms. There are three shorter (2.02 Å) and three longer (2.34 Å) Zn(1)-O(1) bond lengths. Ge(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form edge-sharing GeO6 octahedra. There are three shorter (1.90 Å) and three longer (1.96 Å) Ge(1)-O(1) bond lengths. O(1) is bonded in a distorted see-saw-like geometry to two equivalent Zn(1) and two equivalent Ge(1) atoms.
