Figure 6
(a) The unit-distance graph produced by embedding the chain graph shown in Fig. 3[link](c) in 2D. This chain is forced to curve in on itself to ensure approximately equal T–T distances. At a particular length (number of tetrahedra, n), this results in T⋯T separations that are too short (shown with a red ellipse). This unit-distance graph embedded in 3D viewed (b) along the long axis of the chain and (c) into the long axis of the chain. Note how the chain is forced to form a helical arrangement to prevent unrealistically short T⋯T separations as shown with the red ellipse in (a).
