Generalized definition: Metamaterial

Diamondoid metameterials form the necessary basis for the speculative advanced applications of AP technology level III. These highly complex applications will only become possible through the smart combination of the set of newly available materials with novel properties.

Depending on the APM nanofactory design (vacuum handling) diamondoid metamaterials can be organized in microcomponents or be monolithic.

A short note on low level diamondoid metamaterials can be found on the page describing diamondoid materials.

Todays definition of metamaterials is a bit different but this term still if fitting best here.

List of new materials / base technologies

The set of here presented meta-materials seems less speculative and more incomplete than the list of applications on the products page. It is sorted by design/programming effort which is rather subjective and subject to debate.

low effort

medium effort

high effort

Not to scale! Well designed nano to micro structure can create extraordinary mechanical material properties (graphic not to scale). Stress strain behaviour to order may be possible (in bounds). SVG
  • "elastic diamond" (made possible through the implementation as a semi active metamaterial)
  • maximizing emulated toughness ("beefy" that is much volume occupying dissipation elements are needed - how far can be gone with active high power cooling ?)
  • materials with choosable / adjustable stress-strain diagram (emulated elastoplasticity)
  • actively self cleaning surfaces (no stupid lotus effect meant here) (macroscopic shell cleaning)
  • self repairing materials and self repairing macroscopic machine parts - no decay through weather or root growth.
  • combinations of several metamaterial properties that don't get too well together
  • .... and many more
