Abstract
The structure of dicaesium digallium diorthoborate oxide constitutes a new type of oxide berate. It consists of a three-dimensional gallium- oxide-orthoborate lattice with Cs atoms occupying large cavities in th e lattice, This lattice is made from pairs of Ga atoms connected throu gh a shared O atom along the [001] direction; these Ga dimers are inte rconnected through shared O vertices to trigonal BO3 groups along the [010], [110] and [($) over bar 110] directions, completing the tetrahe dral coordination environment of each Ga atom.
