Dilithium is a crystalline substance used to regulate matter-antimatter reactions in Star Trek warp cores. Dilithium is a natural material typically mined from planets. It is apparently impossible to replicate, but decaying crystals can be made to "restructure" themselves via exposure to photons captured from a nuclear fission reaction.[1]
