Nanotechnology is at the heart of critical and emerging technologies from quantum computing to precision farming—yielding tremendous economic, societal, and national security benefits. As global competition in nanotechnology increases, it is critical to secure U.S. leadership and ensure researchers have access to the state-of-the-art infrastructure necessary to drive innovation.
The National Nanotechnology Initiative (NNI) was created to connect and leverage existing research and development efforts across federal agencies. A new National Academies’ report reviews the landscape of NNI facilities and recommends ways to expand and support U.S. nanotechnology research and development infrastructure.
