Abstract
In a recent book chapter [1], we explored the conceptual feasibility of a room-temperature atom printer capable of constructing complex macroscopic objects with precise atomic control. We identified three challenges within current direct writing techniques and proposed a solution: integrating laser-driven self-organisation with direct writing. We assert that achieving absolute control over individual atoms may not be necessary; instead, harnessing internal feedback mechanisms that drive self-organisation could suffice. The crux is fine-tuning these feedback mechanisms to exert control over the atomic structure. This presentation will offer insight into our concept and showcase proof-of-concept demonstrations.
