The structure described by ZnGeN2 is Lavarevi\'{c}ite-like structured and crystallizes in the trigonal P3m1 space group. Zn(1) is bonded to one N(1) and three equivalent N(2) atoms to form ZnN4 tetrahedra that share corners with six equivalent Zn(1)N4 tetrahedra and corners with six equivalent Ge(1)N4 tetrahedra. Ge(1) is bonded to one N(2) and three equivalent N(1) atoms to form GeN4 tetrahedra that share corners with six equivalent Zn(1)N4 tetrahedra and corners with six equivalent Ge(1)N4 tetrahedra. There are two inequivalent N sites. In the first N site, N(1) is bonded to one Zn(1) and three equivalent Ge(1) atoms to form NZnGe3 tetrahedra that share corners with six equivalent N(2)Zn3Ge tetrahedra and corners with six equivalent N(1)ZnGe3 tetrahedra. In the second N site, N(2) is bonded to three equivalent Zn(1) and one Ge(1) atom to form NZn3Ge tetrahedra that share corners with six equivalent N(2)Zn3Ge tetrahedra and corners with six equivalent N(1)ZnGe3 tetrahedra. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
