Overview

previous: technology level I
next: technology level III

This Level is the most unknown yet.

By definition we have reached T.Level 1 here and have full robotic control. The task is to find blocks as tooltips with which we can build stiff covalent structures under solution. We want to switch from block precise to atomically precise manufacturing here. Those structures then need to be able to form airtight seals or else the next and last step to vacuum will not be possible.

There are bio enzymes that do such things but it is very doubtful that those will be used. The solution for the tooltip problem for T.Level 3 is pretty clear by now but not the one for T.Level 2.
To investigate:

  • How to find methods to create stuctures with as freely choosable geometries as possible ?
  • What about surface passivation? Is this not necessary here ??
  • How to do mechanosynthesis for technology level III with the materials used in this level? e.g. how to mount DC10c onto a pyrite robotic system?
  • [Todo: will vacuum housing only suffice?]
