- Amplification Mechanism: The Synthek Crystal operates by harnessing incoming energy from laser and turbolaser batteries and amplifying it through a process of coherent resonance. When energized, the crystal resonates at specific frequencies, effectively magnifying the energy passing through it. This amplified energy is then channeled back into the weapon systems, enhancing their destructive power.
- Increased Firepower: Synthek Crystals significantly boost the firepower of laser and turbolaser batteries, allowing for more devastating attacks against enemy targets.
- Scalability: The mass-production capability of Synthek Crystals ensures a steady and reliable supply for military forces, reducing reliance on scarce natural resources.
- Versatility: Synthek Crystals can be tailored to suit different weapon systems and energy requirements, making them adaptable to various ship classes and combat scenarios.
- Amplifier: Utilizes resonance and frequencies to amplify energy from turbolaser batteries.
- Increased Firepower: Leading to an increase in damage output for those batteries.
- Versatility: Not only could be it used in these systems, but it can be integrated into other energy-based systems.
- Energy Efficiency: The amplification process of Synthek Crystals requires a significant input of energy, which may impact the overall efficiency of laser and turbolaser systems.
- Stability: Maintaining the structural integrity and stability of Synthek Crystals under high-energy conditions poses engineering challenges, as they must withstand intense heat and radiation without degradation.
The Synthek Crystal is a man-made crystalline structure engineered to mimic the amplification properties of natural kyber crystals. Through advanced molecular manipulation and precise energy alignment, scientists have succeeded in creating a synthetic material capable of enhancing the output of laser and turbolaser batteries.
Primo Victorian, under the direction of Ethanael Halscott sought to create a synthetic kyber crystal to complement their upcoming technologies. The idea was to not only boost engine efficiencies but increase output and efficiency of energy-based weapons. This would be part of a new engine system that would be part of Primo Victorian’s newest generation of ships.
