In the first Ba2+ site, Ba2+ is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to eleven O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ba–O bond distances ranging from 2.76–3.37 Å. In the second Ba2+ site, Ba2+ is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ba–O bond distances ranging from 2.64–3.03 Å. In the third Ba2+ site, Ba2+ is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ba–O bond distances ranging from 2.67–3.26 Å. In the fourth Ba2+ site, Ba2+ is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ba–O bond distances ranging from 2.51–3.21 Å. There are nine inequivalent Ge4+ sites. In the first Ge4+ site, Ge4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form corner-sharing GeO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 46–68°. There are a spread of Ge–O bond distances ranging from 1.72–1.84 Å. In the second Ge4+ site, Ge4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form GeO6 octahedra that share a cornercorner with one GeO6 octahedra, corners with three GeO4 tetrahedra, a cornercorner with one GeO5 trigonal bipyramid, and an edgeedge with one GeO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 40°. There are a spread of Ge–O bond distances ranging from 1.86–2.09 Å.
