Honeycomb Lattice Framework

• Our designs are primarily based on the "honeycomb lattice" framework. This serves as a means of abstracting away many of the details of nanostructure design by restricting ourselves to specific angle constraints when linking helices together.
• Python code is available to implement nanostructures using the honeycomb lattice framework
  • Honeycomb Lattice Python code (v1) and updated lattice (written by William Shih)
