Tooltip chemistry is the term for the special kind of chemistry that takes place when robotic means are used to bring molecular components accurately together such that a certain desired permanent chemical transformation is enforced and archived with very high probability. In short when mechanosynthesis is performed.
Usually covalent bonds are involved.
Typical prosesses are:
- picking molecules from pockets
- modifying molecular moieties on tooltips
- depositing molecular moieties to workpieces
For carbon as building material extensive studies have been done [1] since it was one of the most essential questions regarding the feasability of advanced productive AP nanosystems (technology level III)
