The Administration has requested $495 million for
nanotechnology research, a $225 million increase over
FY2000. Nanotechnology is a newly emerging field of
science where scientists and engineers are beginning to
manipulate matter at the molecular and atomic level.
Proponents argue that nanotechnology will lead to a new
industrial revolution in the 21st century. Scientists
note that nanotechnology is still in its infancy, with
large scale practical applications 10 to 20 years away.
Congressional concerns center around why the
Administration requested such a large increase for the
NNI, the extent to which the newly established Nano
Coordinating Office can successfully fulfill its multi-
agency planning and coordinating responsibilities, and
what role the federal government should play in ensuring
that nanotechnology fulfill its long-term potential broad-
based commercial applicaitons. While the Administration
requested an 84% increase for nanotechnology, Congress
approved a 56% increase($422 million), or %151 million
above the FY2000 $271 million finding level.
