Welcome to Diamond Mechanosynthesis. Diamond mechanosynthesis is a growing body of peer-reviewed theoretical work on synthesizing diamond by mechanically removing/adding hydrogen atoms and depositing carbon atoms. This work is slowly permeating the broader nanoscience community and is being critiqued. Over 100,000 CPU hours were invested in this latest study. The tooltips modeled in diamond mechanosynthesis so far are intended to be used only in carefully controlled environments. Further research to consider additional tooltips will require time-consuming computational chemistry and difficult laboratory work.

A working nanofactory would require a variety of well-designed tips for different reactions, and detailed analyses of placing atoms on more complicated surfaces. Although this appears a challenging problem given current resources, many tools will be available to help future researchers: Moore’s Law predicts further increases in computer power, semiconductor fabrication techniques continue to approach the nanoscale. So, it won’t be long before we have the ability to fabricate many physical items with diamond strength – think about it! Thanks for visiting DiamondMechanosynthesis.com.
