Programming patchy particles to form complex periodic structures
We introduce a scheme to design patchy particles so that a given target crystal is the global free-energy minimum at sufficiently low temperature. A key feature is a torsional component to the potential that only allows binding when particles have the correct relative orientations. In all examples s...
