Apparatus and method for programming a crystal lattice structure of nanoparticles

A product line, comprising:

• a mill core;
• a particle sampling system connected to the mill core and configured to receive nanoparticles from the mill core;
• a particle programming apparatus comprising an input channel connected to the particle sampling system, wherein the particle sampling system is configured to direct the nanoparticles to the particle programming apparatus if the nanoparticles are determined to be below a threshold size;
• wherein the particle programming apparatus comprises one or more programming devices configured to alter a crystal lattice of the nanoparticles received from the particle sampling system, the one or more programming devices including a magnetic pulse generator, a voltage generator, or the magnetic pulse generator and the voltage generator;
• wherein the one or more programming devices are configured to apply a magnetic pulse, a voltage, or the magnetic pulse and the voltage to the nanoparticles received from the particle sampling system within a time threshold of receiving the nanoparticles from the mill core via the particle sampling system;
• and further comprising a control unit that determines the time threshold within which to apply the magnetic pulse, the voltage, or the magnetic pulse and the voltage, wherein the time threshold is based on a solidifying rate associated with a material composition of the nanoparticles received from the particle sampling system.

A method for programming nanoparticles, comprising:

• receiving, by a particle programming array, nanoparticles from a mill core within a time threshold of formation of the nanoparticles in the mill core;
• applying, by the particle programming array, a magnetic pulse, a voltage, or the magnetic pulse and the voltage to the nanoparticles to alter a crystal lattice structure of the nanoparticles within the time threshold of formation, wherein the time threshold of formation is based on a solidifying rate associated with a material composition of the received nanoparticles;
• and
• directing the nanoparticles to a solidifying chamber such that the nanoparticles solidify with the altered crystal lattice structure.
