National Nanotechnology Planning National Nanotechnology Planning Period : 2001 ~ 2010 (10yrs, 3 phases) Fund : 1,485M (government 983.5M private 501.5M) (unit : USD) infra 189M 13% education 83.5M 6% total 1,485M R&D 1212.5M 82% 3 key areas R&D ▶ R&D : concentration on selected areas ▶ Education : anticipate short & long term demand ▶ Infra : information network, nanofab, etc. education Infra

  6. National Nanotechnology Planning National Nanotechnology Planning National Science & Technology Council (NSTC) MOST R&D Infrastructure Commercialization in private sector Support commercialization Industrial infrastructure MOCIE Commercial application for each relevant issues Application for IT Ubiquitous Implementation MIC ME Alternative Energy Reduction of pollution MOHW Medical application Medical nano materials MOE Human resources Basic Science

  7. Background Current Status Research Output Planning for 2005 Funding for 2005

  8. Current Status Current Status Due to the aggressive investment, goals for 1st phase successfully achieved Need for improvement in education and social impacts of nanotechnology Need for long term strategic plan Maintain continuous, strategic support at national level Support from the early stage of R&D program based on the long term strategic planning - 2nd phase National Nanotechnology Planning in preparation Establishment of legal background - Nanotechnology Acts(’02. 12, ’03. 6)

  9. Current Status Current Status Increase in funding and resources Estimate of resources R&D investment College education Continuous increase 3.6 times in 2012 +35% anually 277M 238M Ph.D 4171 Mas. 5234 17 31 Ph.D 1280 Mas. 1323 83M 2001 2003 2005 2002 2004 2004 2006 2009 2012

  10. Current Status Current Status Support infrastructure for R&D National nanofab center, Korea advanced nanofab center Nano integration centers for materials, processing, tools Nano component center, Nano chemical center Commercialization of nano product in private sector nano silver refrigerator•washer, nano textiles and paint, nano cosmetics Number of NT based enterprises increase from 50 (2001) to 100 (2004) Mid & long term strategic plan and technology assessment Modification and improvement of the 1st phase plan including technology assessment of the effects on health, environment, etc. Develop Interdisciplinary courses and cooperation with industry

  11. KOSEF Nanotechnology R&D program KOSEF Nanotechnology R&D program Goals Develop core technology One of the leading countries by 2010 Funding period : '96.12 ~/ amount : 414.4M (gov 346.6M private 67.8M )

  12. KOSEF Nanotechnology R&D program KOSEF Nanotechnology R&D program Nano Discovery Fundamental technology research Basic Nano Challenger Achieve world top class core technologies Application Nano Fusion Overcome the technological bottleneck Multidisciplinary Nano Infra Establish soft Infrastructures System & Network

  13. Background Current Status Research Output Planning for 2005 Funding for 2005

  14. Research Output Research Output Scientific Articles Number of Articles(SCI) : 1,128(5th) 2004 832(6th) 2003 221(8th) 2000 Accumulated number(1997~): 3,542(6th) (by Feb. 2005) => 16.2% compared to US

  15. Research Output Research Output Patents Number of nano-related patents : 192(6th) ’99~’03 22(12th) ’94~’98 => increased 8 times in same term *registered in US Number of patents (1991~) : 217(7th)

  16. Research Output Research Output Technology level 25% level to US (2001) → assessed as 62% in 2004 <by poll to experts : KISTI, 2004>
