1GHz maximum on the plates and magnet
1E10 atoms/s
1E20 per minibot
1E10 seconds.
Want 1 minibot per second?
The factory unit takes clean feedstock
For factory and refiner:
10 atomic distances minimum clearance
1E-9m separation
1E9 atoms per meter per head
stream speed, 10m/s
1E10 atoms/second per head
One minibot per hour from the fab unit would be 3.6E13 atoms per minibot. That 's a major step down from the initial idea but it means the deposition refining and manufacture is practical. Any larger and it's not. We can try increasing the atoms/s somehow, but I think the ballpark estimate is fair. So, what can we make with 3.6E13 atoms? It has to make the fab unit itself, to start with. Unless we can have an exponential production of fab units then nothing else will be scaled.
Small subset of isotopes will be mixing elements. Which? Is this problematic.
I've started a table of bucket sizes with 200 buckets, one for each isotope group. There are elements with isotope mass clashes. Some buckets will be reject mixes but there's no element which hasn't a bucket to itself unless you count Tritium/Helium3 as necessary elements. My table shows all elements have at least one isotope with a unique mass number. The forum has a post with the isotope table.
2E-8m separation
4E-6m collector
by 2E-6m high
beam length to be determined
process: load, clip, beam, unclip, each clip to store, no need to unload
We need to gather more than makes a clip or a fab during its lifetime
I've no idea how to hold the charged plasma or, more likely, to make it on the fly before it enters the beam. Where does that localized heat come from?
Coordinate system. I don't care where it is, I want to know how many north and east I am wrt the rest of the units.
"mass-to-charge ratio, which is represented mathematically as m/z (or m/e). For example, if an ion has a mass of 18 units and a charge of 1+, its m/z value is 18." - [1]
QBR=mv
- v=10m/s
- Hydrogen m=1.67E-27kg
- Q=1.6E-19C
- R=1E-6m
- B=(unknown)T
- m/Q=1.04E-8kg/C
gives a sense of the electric field needed on that scale.
