TaN is Halite, Rock Salt structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ta3+ is bonded to six equivalent N3- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing TaN6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. All Ta–N bond lengths are 2.21 Å. N3- is bonded to six equivalent Ta3+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing NTa6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°.
