There are only 13 "Archimedean solids". Now a molecule-scale version of one of these structures could help create substances that wouldn't otherwise form.

A molecule-sized version of one of the 13 Archimedean solids has formed a cage for a metal complex never seen before. Close. Advertisement. Skip to content. Sign in. Search the website. Events; ...
