Bottom-up Top-down overlap

The idea here is getting

• the largest size of bottom up assemblable structures sufficiently above
• the smallest size of top down manufacturable structures such

that the two can be made to interact in a controllable fashion.

Examples

• Aligning self-assembled structures in/on photolithographically created structures
• Grabbing bottom-up self-assembled structures by MEMS tweezers
• What about Exponential assembly that involves both top-down manufactured and self-assembled bottom up manufactured structures?
• ...

Side-note: Manipulating self assembled structures with an SPM tip
(possible with another bottom-up self-assembled structure attached)
does not really involve a top down tech part.
