Quantum dispersed crystolecules
From apm
The idea here is to reduce the constraint on position and orentation of nanoscale to microscale components (crystolecules, ...)
by levitating them weakly constrained.
Thereby they become trapped free particles and may start to nanomechanically quantum disperse.
Then the situation that "nanomechanics is barely mechanical quantummechanics" no longer holds.
Motivation
Why would one want to do this?
A main goal in atomically precise manufacturing is to gain and retain
control over position and orientation of atoms and molecules. Not to deliberately let go of it.

Good question.
Curiosity, research, ..., Exploiting some special effects that are yet to discover?
