This article is a stub. It needs to be expanded.
Young’s modulus and the lattice-scaled stiffness for selected materials – Modulus and lattice geometry data from multiple sources. Klm values for “keratin” represent building blocks of protein (or other folded polymers) with a keratin-like Young’s modulus, showing the effect of differing block sizes. (Description text as-is from Eric Drexlers blog)

In force applying mechanosynthesis (piezochemical mechanosynthesis)
,when assuming one synthesizes the same material that the tool-tip is made out of,
the critical material property to look at is lattice scaled stiffness not just plain stiffness.

In positional assembly a bigger amplitude of thermal vibrations of a tool-tip on a softer (less stiff more compliant) structure is not critical
as long as the space between the spots where the block snaps to during deposition is is just big enough.
As long as the lattice spacing is big enough.

Math

[math] K_{lm} = E a^3 r^2_{err} [/math]

  • E … Young’s modulus
  • a … lattice parameter (a simplification, not all crystals have cubic symmetry)
  • [math] r^2_{err} [/math] accounts for the ratio of the minimum error displacement to the lattice parameter
  • [math] r_{err} = 1/\sqrt{2} [/math] is a common value.
