The ability to delineate the boundaries of an emerging technology is central to obtaining an understanding of the technology’s
research paths and commercialization prospects. Nowhere is this more relevant than in the case of nanotechnology (hereafter
identified as “nano”) given its current rapid growth and multidisciplinary nature. (Under the rubric of nanotechnology, we
also include nanoscience and nanoengineering.) Past efforts have utilized several strategies, including simple term search
for the prefix nano, complex lexical and citation-based approaches, and bootstrapping techniques. This research introduces
a modularized Boolean approach to defining nanotechnology which has been applied to several research and patenting databases.
We explain our approach to downloading and cleaning data, and report initial results. Comparisons of this approach with other
nanotechnology search formulations are presented. Implications for search strategy development and profiling of the nanotechnology
field are discussed.
