ATP's
Project Portfolio in Nanotechnology
Since 1991,
the NIST Advanced Technology Program has made 39 awards, totaling
nearly $142.5 million, to U.S.-based industry for high-risk R&D
projects in the emerging area of nanotechnology. Including an industry
cost-share that totals $137.7 million, these projects represent
a combined total of $280.2 million in high-risk nanotechnology R&D.
Twenty-three awards, nearly 60 percent of the total number to date,
have been made since fiscal year 2000. The number of nanotechnology-related
proposals, as a percentage of total proposals submitted to the ATP,
also is increasing. The awards that have been made to date span
a range of technical areas, which ATP broadly categorizes under
the following themes: nanostructured materials, nanofabrication
processes and tools, nanobiotechnology, nanoelectronics, and nanometrology.
