Rectangle-triangle soft-matter quasicrystals with hexagonal symmetry
Aperiodic (quasicrystalline) tilings, such as Penrose's tiling, can be built up from, e.g., kites and darts, squares and equilateral triangles, rhombi- or shield-shaped tiles, and can have a variety of different symmetries. However, almost all quasicrystals occurring in soft matter are of the dodecagonal type. Here we investigate a class …
