Theta-matrix compositor

The theta-matrix compositor was a device aboard Federation starships to recrystallize dilithium crystals while they were still in the articulation frame of a warp core. This compositor made the recrystallization process ten times more efficient than on the older ships. () 
By the 2360s, Starfleet had the ability to synthesize dilithium via recrystallization while it was still enclosed in the warp core's dilithium articulation frame using a theta-matrix compositor. This was done by recompositing fractured crystals. (; )
