On Some Intermediate Results of Nanotechnology Development: A Scientometric Glance

Abstract

Nanotechnology (NT) is the first global scientific and technical initiative in the 21st century, which provoked considerable research, economic and political interests. The Russian government considers them to be a locomotive for driving the economy onto the innovation track, aiming in the medium term to bring the country into a group of the world leaders. The article presents a scientometric analysis of the some intermediate results of NT development. The calculation of bibliometric indicators showed continuing decline of Russia’s contribution to world output of nano publications, as well as made possible to measure the intensity of its col laboration with different groups of countries, and to compare the citation of publications co-authored with the foreign scientists in relation only the Russian ones. Analysis of patents allowed to estimate the (domestic and international) patent activity of the Russian inventors, the formed patent landscape and possible directions for commercialization in the field of carbon nanostructures. In the conclusion, some problems of the nanotechnology policy of the country’s scientific authorities discussed.
