14. A larger size of the first diamond may be explained by the highly confined s-like ground state that the first two electrons occupy.
15. An analytical solution for a 2D hexagonal system does not exist. We have instead solved the Schrödinger equation numerically for an infinite hardwall potential to obtain the energy level structure.
