Octahedral symmetry

We investigate the assembly of a binary mixture of patchy colloids and droplets into crystal structures by use of the space-filling principle and Metropolis Monte Carlo simulations. Here, colloids with six patches in an octahedral symmetry attract droplets, whereas the colloid-colloid and droplet-droplet pairwise interactions are purely hard-core repulsions.
