ABSTRACT
Theoretically, 27 types of Frank–Kasper (FK) phases could be constructed with three cornerstones, the FK A15, C15, and Z phases. They are all spherical packing composed motifs. In single-component soft matter, experimental observation(s) A15 phase is common while C15 rare. Recently, a serendipitous observation an significant volume asymmetry constructing motifs from giant shape amphiphile assembly has been reported. it anticipated that consisting μ ± 1 molecules readily reached when small. Herein, we present design strategy to precisely control number inside motif by geometrical tuning molecular building blocks, thus leading formation in rational manner.
