Degenerate quasicrystal of hard triangular bipyramids.
We report a degenerate quasicrystal in Monte Carlo simulations of hard triangular bipyramids each composed of two regular tetrahedra sharing a single face. The dodecagonal quasicrystal is similar to that recently reported for hard tetrahedra [Haji-Akbari et al., Nature (London) 462, 773 (2009)] but degenerate in the pairing of tetrahedra, and self-assembles at packing fractions above 54%. This ...
متن کاملPacking and self-assembly of truncated triangular bipyramids.
Motivated by breakthroughs in the synthesis of faceted nano- and colloidal particles, as well as theoretical and computational studies of their packings, we investigate a family of truncated triangular bipyramids. We report dense periodic packings with small unit cells that were obtained via numerical and analytical optimization. The maximal packing fraction φ(max) changes continuously with the...
متن کاملNon-degenerate Developable Triangular Bézier Patches
In this talk we show a construction for characterising developable surfaces in the form of Bézier triangular patches. It is shown that constructions used for rectangular patches are not useful, since they provide degenerate triangular patches. Explicit constructions of nondegenerate developable triangular patches are provided.
متن کاملPhotomediated synthesis of silver triangular bipyramids and prisms: the effect of pH and BSPP.
The photomediated synthesis of silver right triangular bipyramids and prisms has been studied, and we have determined that pH and [BSPP]/[Ag(+)] ratio (bis(p-sulfonatophenyl)phenylphosphine, BSPP) finely control the reaction rate and, consequently, the crystal growth pathway and morphology of final products. A fast reaction rate, realized at a high pH such as 10 or 11 and a [BSPP]/[Ag(+)] ratio...
متن کاملDoes it Look Square? Hexagonal Bipyramids, Triangular Antiprismoids, and their Fractals
The Sierpinski tetrahedron is two-dimensional with respect to fractal dimensions though it is realized in threedimensional space, and it has square projections in three orthogonal directions. We study its generalizations and present two-dimensional fractals with many square projections. One is generated from a hexagonal bipyramid which has square projections not in three but in six directions. ...
