In geometry, the triakis truncated tetrahedron is a convexpolyhedron made from 4 hexagons and 12 isosceles triangles. It can be used to tessellate three-dimensional space, making the triakis truncated tetrahedral honeycomb.[1][2]
The triakis truncated tetrahedron is the shape of the Voronoi cell of the carbon atoms in diamond, which lie on the diamond cubic crystal structure.[3][4] As the Voronoi cell of a symmetric space pattern, it is a plesiohedron.[5]
