Resumen de Programmable Interlocking Disks: Bottom-Up Modular Assembly of Chemically Relevant Polyhedral and Reticular Structural Models
Aleksandar Kondinski, Tatjana N. Parac-Vogt
Single-type, 8-fold-grooved, commercially accessible interlocking disks (ILDs) have been used for modeling of complex polyhedral and reticular topologies with relevance to inorganic and hybrid materials. The assembly of complex topologies relies on the preparation of secondary building units (SBUs), which exhibit different connectivity than that of the primary ILDs. All ILD-based models are light, scalable, programmable, and suitable for discovery-based learning and classroom demonstrations of stereochemistry and complex chemical concepts
