@LoganFive #Picotechnology is not hypothetical. The subatomic structural elements are measurable (with high resolution X-ray diffraction) and accurately modeled with standard #QuantumChemistry software. It is its application to controlling #chemistry that is still in the future. Not too distant, I hope 🤞!

Etching is etching, and that is what #picotechnology is all about!
Here’s the cobalt ion ⬇️ at the heart of #vitaminB12 discussed in the #Nature essay ⬆️, where the ‘blue trumpets’ (‘holes’ in the charge cloud) reveal that the atom has been ‘etched’ by quantum forces in a way that will make chemists think about ‘empty d-orbitals’. ✅

True, chemists do not ‘etch’ atoms.
Quantum forces do! 👉 https://www.nature.com/articles/35088116

Graphite and diamond ARE both made from the same atoms (carbon), but they are not the “exact same”. The carbon atoms in graphite and diamond (and fullerenes) differ at the picometer scale. This is the basis of #picotechnology 👉 https://www.morressier.com/o/event/5e733c5acde2b641284a7e27/article/5e73d6ce139645f83c22b095

After giving a research seminar on “What is #picotechnology ?” at the University of Vienna, I had coffee at the Arkade. ⬇️
I asked the barista if she knew who her stone cold colleague was. She had no idea, but the coffee was excellent!
