The crystal structure of α-Si3N4 was reinvestigated by an X-ray method using a single-crystal specimen prepared by chemical vapor deposition. The oxygen content of the specimen (0.05 ± 0.03%) was determined by 14 MeV neutron activation analysis. The α form crystallizes in the space group P31c with uniteell dimensions a=7.818 ± 0.003 A and c= 5.591 ± 0.004 A. The structure was refined by the full-matrix least-squares method using 1143 observed structure factors. The Si-N distances determind ranged from 1.715 to 1.759 A, and the final value of R was 0.041. Structural evidences indicated that the α form is essentially pure Si3N4.
