K3Ga2(PO4)3 and Na3Ga(PO4)2.

The structures of tripotassium digallium tris(phosphate), K3Ga2(PO4)3, and trisodium gallium bis(phosphate), Na3Ga(PO4)2, have different irregular one-dimensional alkali ion-containing channels along the a axis of the orthorhombic and triclinic unit cells, respectively. The anionic subsystems consist of vortex-linked PO4 tetrahedra and GaO4 tetrahedra or GaO5 trigonal bipyramids in the first and second structure, respectively.
