Regional Development and Interregional Collaboration in the Growth of Nanotechnology Research in China

中国纳米技术研究增长中的区域发展和区域间合作
摘要
China is becoming a leading nation in terms of its share of the world’s publications in the emerging nanotechnology domain. This paper demonstrates that the
international rise of China’s position in nanotechnology has been underwritten by the
emergence of a series of regional hubs of nanotechnology R&D activity within the country.
We develop a unique database of Chinese nanotechnology articles covering the period
1990 to mid-2006 to identify the regional distribution of nanotechnology research in China.
To build this database, a new approach was developed to clean and standardize the geographical allocation of Chinese publication records. We then analyze the data to understand the regional development of nanotechnology research in China over our study period
and to map interregional and international research collaboration linkages. We find that the
geographical distribution of China’s domestic nanotechnology research is characterized by
regional imbalance, with most of the leading regions located in eastern China, including
not only Beijing and Shanghai but also a series of other new regional hubs. There is much
less development of nanotechnology research in central and western China. Beijing,
Shanghai, and Hong Kong are among the leading Chinese regions for international
nanotechnology research collaboration. Other Chinese nanotechnology regions are less
focused on international collaboration, although they have developed domestic interregional collaborations. Although new regional research hubs have emerged in the nanotechnology domain, the paper notes that their concentration in eastern China reinforces
existing imbalances in science and technology capabilities in China, and in turn this may
further reinforce the dominant position of eastern China in the commercialization of new
technologies such as nanotechnology.

就其在新兴纳米技术领域的世界出版物份额而言,中国正在成为一个领先的国家。本文证明,中国在纳米技术领域的国际地位的上升是由国内一系列纳米技术研发活动的区域中心的合并所保证的。我们开发了一个涵盖1990年至2006年年中的中国纳米技术文章的独特数据库,以确定中国纳米技术研究的区域分布数据库,开发了一种新的方法来清理和规范中国出版记录的地理分配。然后,我们分析数据,以了解研究期间中国纳米技术研究的区域发展,并绘制区域间和国际研究合作的联系图。我们发现,中国国内纳米技术研究的地理分布具有区域不平衡的特征,其中大部分领先地区位于
