This article is a stub. It needs to be expanded.
Possible map for the incremental path. The robo approach corresponds to path B in the diagram.

This is about a possible sub-branch of the incremental path.
This is is part of the more broad ideas of protein carpentry.

The idea here is to scale up self-assembly capabilities of various foldamer technologies quite far (yellow or orange "too big to diffuse?" star in the diagram). And only then take a turn left in the diagram to more advanced materials.

Path marked with B in the diagram.

How would that look like in reality?

There would be quite advanced bottom up-self assembled foldamer based systems on chip.
Perhaps so far so that

The robo approach in the incremental path basically entails
compared to diamoindoid low performance de-novo protein and other foldamer based productive nanosystems
at larger but not necessarily macro-scales.

Applications

Potential side applications at this potential early stage of tech development.
It seems not much comes up here.

This could e.g. make quite big structures usable for:

  • bigger gratings for neutral atom helium matter wave microscopes
  • much bigger optical gratings like on butterfly wings (structural color)
  • maybe nanofluidics with chambers integrating enzymatic proteins or such?
  • ...
