Abstract
D6-branes intersecting at angles allow for phenomenologically appealing constructions of four dimensional string theory vacua. While it is straightforward to obtain non-supersymmetric realizations of the standard model, supersymmetric and stable models with three generations and no exotic chiral matter require more involved orbifold constructions. The T^6/(Z_4 x Z_2 x OmegaR) case is discussed in detail. Other orbifolds including fractional D6-branes are treated briefly.
