Wolfe, Novel Gold Monolayer Protected Clusters: Synthesis, Characterization, Separation, and Functionalization, PhD Thesis, page 29, Many proposed MPC cores, including Au140 and Au225, are truncated octahedrons, referred to as TO+ because the shapes are (0 < n - m = 4), where n is the number of atoms between (111) facets and m is the number of atoms between (111) and (100) facets. ==== Hypernyms ==== (polyhedron with 14 faces): tetrakaidecahedron / tetrakaidekahedron ==== Translations ====
