Melilite structure of LaSrGa3O7. (a) View along the axis, showing the layered nature of the structure. The black spheres and polyhedra denote La/Sr atoms and GaO4 tetrahedra, respectively. (b) View along the axis, showing the connectivity of the Ga tetrahedral units forming distorted pentagonal tunnels. The La/Sr atoms above or below the centers of the pentagonal.
