Apparatuses and Methods Relating to Precision Attachments Between First and Second Components

A method relating to an apparatus including a first component and a second component, the method comprising:

• disposing a first field emission structure on the first component;
• and
• disposing a second field emission structure on the second component;
• wherein the first and second components are adapted to be attached to each other with the first field emission structure in proximity to the second field emission structure such that the first and second field emission structures have a predetermined alignment with respect to each other;
• each of the first and second field emission structures including multiple field emission sources having positions and polarities relating to a predefined spatial force function that corresponds to the predetermined alignment of the first and second field emission structures within a field domain;
• the first and second field emission structures configured responsive to at least one precision criterion.

A first component that is capable of being attached to a second component, the second component including a second field emission structure;

• the first component comprising:
• a body;
• and
• a first field emission structure that is disposed on the body;
• the first component adapted to be attached to the second component with the first field emission structure in proximity to the second field emission structure such that the first and second field emission structures have a predetermined alignment with respect to each other;
• each of the first and second field emission structures including multiple field emission sources having positions and polarities relating to a predefined spatial force function that corresponds to the predetermined alignment of the first and second field emission structures within a field domain;
• the first and second field emission structures configured responsive to at least one precision criterion.
