Figure 3.

Cross‐linked nanowire structures in which the P8 cages are connected in various ways, based on their ability to form either one or two covalent bonds to a neighboring cage (leading to either threefold or fourfold connected networks). a) G73, a structure defined by a nanowire with a three‐fold principal axis; b) G97, with a four‐fold principal axis, and c) G88, with a six‐fold principal axis. d–f) Topological analysis in terms of the constituent SBUs, which may be linked with different modes of connectivity. For G73 and G97, the origin has been shifted to ease visualization; all structural data are provided as Supporting Information.
