This award supports the next Quadrennial Review of the National Nanotechnology Initiative (NNI) as specified in the law, Section 5 of Public Law 108-153 and Section 201 of the American Innovation and Competitiveness Act (P.L. 114-329). This National Academies of Science, Engineering and Medicine (NASEM) study focuses on the analysis of the nation's nanotechnology research and development (R&D) infrastructure and its impact on nanotechnology R&D. It determines the trends and opportunities for future nanotech research, the metrics used to track and evaluate success, and the improvements needed to achieve equitable and impactful national engagement in existing and future nanotechnology infrastructure. The outcomes of this study are critical feedback to Federal Agencies, Academia, and Industry. They learn how the community is currently being served by the nation's nanotechnology R&D infrastructure and what barriers remain. This study also provides important feedback to the wider NNI community and interested stakeholders. The resulting study report is beneficial to nanotechnology researchers in the US as well as industrial companies involved with current and future applications of various nanotechnologies. The report also benefits education and workforce development. It is disseminated to the technical community and public through briefings, presentations, reports and on-line at nap.nationalacademies.org. Advances in nanoscience and nanotechnology have spurred innovations in many areas of science, engineering, technology, and medicine including materials and chemicals, electronics and photonics, biotechnology and healthcare, and others. These advances have pushed interdisciplinary and convergent research bringing together scientists and engineers from diverse fields and of diverse backgrounds towards common goals of ensuring that the US remains a leader in nanotechnology R&D and that the benefits of nanotechnology are shared by all Americans. This study examines the composition of the science and engineering community currently being served by the nation's nanotechnology R&D infrastructure; explores trends, opportunities, and emerging use-cases for nanoscience and nanotechnology research; examines how well positioned nanotechnology-relevant infrastructure is to be impactful; and identifies barriers to use for communities who are not fully engaging with nanotechnology R&D infrastructure. The review recommendations are designed to improve the value of the NNI's research and development strategy, portfolio, and infrastructure investments to enhance the economic prosperity and national security of the United States.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该奖项支持国家纳米技术计划（NNI）的下一个四年一度的审查，如法律规定，公法108-153第5节和美国创新与竞争力法案（PL）第201节。114-329）。美国国家科学、工程和医学院（NASEM）的这项研究重点是分析美国纳米技术研究和开发（R D）的基础设施及其对纳米技术R D的影响。它确定了未来纳米技术研究的趋势和机会，用于跟踪和评估成功的指标，以及在现有和未来的纳米技术基础设施中实现公平和有效的国家参与所需的改进。本研究的结果是对联邦机构、学术界和工业界的重要反馈。他们了解社区目前是如何被国家的纳米技术研发基础设施服务，以及仍然存在哪些障碍。这项研究还为更广泛的NNI社区和利益相关者提供了重要的反馈。由此产生的研究报告是有益的纳米技术研究人员在美国以及工业公司参与当前和未来的各种纳米技术的应用。该报告还有利于教育和劳动力发展。它通过简报、演讲、报告和nap.nationalacademies.org在线向技术界和公众传播。纳米科学和纳米技术的进步促进了科学、工程、技术和医学许多领域的创新，包括材料和化学品、电子和光子学、生物技术和医疗保健等。这些进步推动了跨学科和融合的研究，使来自不同领域和不同背景的科学家和工程师聚集在一起，以确保美国仍然是纳米技术研发的领导者，并确保所有美国人都能分享纳米技术的好处。这项研究探讨了科学和工程界的组成，目前正在由国家的纳米技术&研发基础设施;探索纳米科学和纳米技术研究的趋势，机会和新兴用例;研究如何定位纳米技术相关的基础设施是有影响力的;并确定使用的障碍，为社区谁不完全参与纳米技术&研发基础设施。评审建议旨在提高NNI的研发战略、投资组合和基础设施投资的价值，以促进美国的经济繁荣和国家安全。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响评审标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
