The material structure described by Ca3GeN is (Cubic) Perovskite structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. Ca(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to four equivalent Ge(1) and two equivalent N(1) atoms. Ge(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent Ca(1) atoms to form GeCa12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent Ge(1)Ca12 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent Ge(1)Ca12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight equivalent N(1)Ca6 octahedra. N(1) is bonded to six equivalent Ca(1) atoms to form NCa6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent N(1)Ca6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent Ge(1)Ca12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra are not tilted. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
