Simulation of the self-assembly of simple molecular bricks into Sierpiński triangles.
The canonical lattice Monte Carlo simulation was used to demonstrate the surface-confined mixed self-assembly of 120° ditopic organic tectons and metal atoms into ordered hierarchical structures resembling the mathematical fractal set called the Sierpiński triangle.
