Mixed path
From apm
This is about a scenario wherein the incremental path and the direct path eventually intermingle
thereby "cross-pollinating" and helping along on the pathways to advanced productive nanosystems.
Note that taking this pathway does not mean that all far term target systems will be hybrid.
Taking this pathway rather means that there will be more options for bio-compatible operation in advanced systems (nanomedicine).
High performance systems (like e.g. in rocket engines or so) will still need to avoid all thermally fragile components.
Meaning likely no foldamers but only crystals. See: Consistent design for external limiting factors
Hard in soft
- Integration of solution phase mechanosynthesis in foldamer systems
- Integration of crystolecules (possibly produced in vacuum) into solution phase systems
Soft in hard
- Integration of self assembled foldamer things into crystolecular systems.
