The title compound is a non-stoichiometric ionic conductor with the chemical formula K1.67Mg0.67(Al10.33-xGax)O17, where x = 1.75. This corresponds to a 17% gallium substitution
of the aluminium spinel block framework. The gallium substitution influences
the mobile K+ ion distribution and hence the ion conductivity.
