Resumen

ARENCIBIA JORGE, Ricardo; ARAUJO RUIZ, Juan A  y  TORRICELLA MORALES, Raúl G. Nanotechnology as a scientific discipline: a bibliometric study of the Web of Science in the period 1987- 2004. ACIMED [online]. 2005, vol.13, n.4, pp. 1-1. ISSN 1024-9435.

This is a bibliometric study of the articles indexed in the Web of Science, which comprises Nanotechnology as a scientific discipline. The word Nanotechnology was chosen as a search strategy in any of the database fields of the Institute for Scientific Information of Philadelphia. A total of 1809 article registries were obtained and downloaded in text pattern, and then sent to a file of the EndNote program, with the aim of creating the frequency indexes of the studied variants. The most productive authors, journals and geographical areas were identified. In this sense, the leading role of the United States, Germany, Japan and the United Kingdom was evidenced. An exponential growth in the amount of articles was observed, which shows the boom this new discipline has experienced during the last years. Bilateral and multilateral cooperation among the countries to develop nanotechnological research was analysed, and the Nanotechnology potentials as a scientific discipline for the coming years were also assessed.
