Worldwide, governments and corporations invested almost 10 billion in nanotechnology R&D in China poised to become the worlds nanotech superpower, or is this prediction hyperbole? What is Chinas comparative advantage in the hightech sector, and how is it exploiting this advantage in nanotechnology? Will Chinas investment in nanotechnology pay off? And how will the United States respond to Chinas growing nanotechnology capacitywith competition, cooperation, or both?

Another, according to Veecos Rossi is that the multiple collaborations of Chinas small universities often facilitates connections between the foreign firms they work with. Veecos collaborations with Fudan University in Shanghai and the National Center for Nanoscience and Technology of China in Beijing. But some of the momentum created by government funding be lost by Chinas lack of nationally coordinated nanotech initiative. They generate approximately 40 of the companys revenues and represent its fastest growing region for sales. Lacking direction at the national level, much of the research done at the regional level is redundant or less relevant than it could be.

Veeco, for one, opened research center operated jointly with the Institute of Chemistry of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Chunli Bai, cited examples of domestic companies boosting profits by simply adding nano label to their products. in in terms of published, peerreviewed journal articles on nanotech. Even so, very few foreign nanotech firms appear to have tapped the Chinese market to date.

Applications in electronics and life sciences are virtually nonexistent today.

This official body is charged with strengthening the inspection of research facilities in public institutions and with meeting the needs of manufacturers in China. In the United States, for example, an estimated 3 billion for nanorelated research was earmarked by the government from to through the National Nanotechnology Initiative, sum more than matched by venture capital. The scope of support was also greatly expanded to include specific areas such as nanodevices, nanobiology and medicine, detection and characterization, theory, modeling, and simulation.

They cannot spend their currency reserves as fast as they are taking them in and the trade imbalance is simply direct result of their regulated currency. If you take look at whats called the new economy computers, internet it comes straight out of places like MIT under military contract to produce the next generation of the hitech economy. If yuo want to speak English at least the it Right blah blah blah why have they not done this? there are couple of different reasons for this. Not single person.

so as long as their more educated individuals keep moving to america im not too worried. The comment in china and Indida spewing out Phds does not make any sense. They cannot spend their currency reserves as fast as they are taking them in and the trade imbalance is simply direct result of their regulated currency. The chinese and Indians are stealing and copying everything from the US. Colleges and Universities are merely businesses that are entitling todays generation with the newest prerequisite for better jobs. This is growing problem for the Chinese and they are not sure how to handle it.

They are disgrace to English language. why have they not done this? there are couple of different reasons for this. The Chinese have proven they are great at copying and possibly even making minor improvements, but innovation has been largely restricted due to cultural constraints for the last years or so in China. Maybe some specific uses, but not nanotech in general. Release that lock and we are going to see massive correction in Chinese trade balance and Chinabased demand.

Then it gets handed to IBM when you can sell something.if they are producing more Phd level people in their own countries china and indiathey should have already leapfrogged the US in various different technological areas. maybe because their Phd acquiring people are busy moving to America for higher salaries and more consumerbased economy this is why we are busy playing video games and surfing the internet?

That HAS to happen at some point in the next few years and its going to slow all these stated programs way down. Quoting ChomskyYou have to remember that whats called military industry is just hitech industry. blah blah blah why have they not done this? there are couple of different reasons for this. dont know anyone including some extremely religious people in various religions who would say nanotech is bad. Look at their histories India and China used to be beacons of science etc.. Instead perhaps we should focus on advancing technology instead of catering to an acceptance of substandard goals.
