StarTrek Replicators
The Federation replicator has many qualities but also has certain limits: it cannot synthesize latinium, it cannot synthesize certain high density Cardassian components like those used in the power supply system of DS9, and has difficulty reproducing fine structures on a quantum scale like Data’s brain.
.
– Latinium cannot be synthesized because it resonates with the structural fields of replicators which keep the molecules in position during synthesis. We had the same problem with teleporters but thanks to subroutines it was possible to teleport latinium but only in massive form: bar, ingots, …
It is moreover a powder of crystals of a latinium compound which had caused the splitting of Captain James T. Kirk. Problem solved for a long time by a subroutine eliminating these dangerous crystals.
.
For the Cardassian components with high density the limits of the replicators are exceeded because it would be necessary to include a molecular compressor field for them which is incompatible with the structural fields of the replicator .
.
The difficulty in reproducing certain fine structures at the quantum level stems from the residual energy in each atom synthesized. Because of it, it will not settle where it should but can associate with a neighboring molecule. This is why the finest circuits such as iso-linear chips are designed from the outset to avoid this kind of problem similar to that of the era of electronic chips where we projected onto a substrate of metal, boron, phosphorus through masks and which we had to create finer engravings to take into account the quantum effects and modify the design of the masks accordingly.
.
And that is why Mr. Data could not reproduce his brain at the quantum level because he did not know that Doctor Noonian Soong had to invent a method of synthesis on a gas matrix solidified under pressure at low temperature. Thus the residual energy was dissipated in the gas and the atoms took their place in the molecules planned before the withdrawal of the gas matrix which caused a contraction of the whole which had to be controlled meticulously to obtain perfect alignment at the quantum level. Mr. Data would have liked to discover or reproduce this innovative technique and he would like also have been able to study the prototype of his brain than as large of a piece of furniture that allowed Doctor Soong to modify it manually by changing the components to find the most stable and efficient structure with the appropriate subroutines. He was old school and preferred it to synthesizing a new brain every time or run simulations.
.
Thus replicators can reproduce practically everything on a non-quantum molecular scale with a few exceptions that engineering students have fun trying to reproduce.
Of course, replicators have construction subroutines that detect these errors or simply bypass them by modifying the order and the synthesis method to stabilize these structures before they collapse.
.
Replicators therefore remain an essential tool for the production of equipment or food even if sometimes in this case the synthesis of aromatic molecules can be deficient unless we have molecularly holo-scanned an already prepared dish and stored its image in memory. Hence the survival of the culinary art throughout the Federation.
