Aux États-Unis, le mot «nanotechnologie» est pris au sens strict du terme, c'est-à-dire qu'il désigne la fabrication d’objets à l'échelle du nanomètre dans les trois dimensions. Au Japon, la même acception prévaut, avec un intérêt plus marqué pour les retombées technologiques en électronique et en médecine. [...] En Europe, les nanotechnologies correspondent à un champ plus vaste d’activités, comprenant aussi bien la microscopie à champ proche que la lithographie submicronique ou l'épitaxie par jet moléculaire, et parfois même les microactionneurs en silicium [...] 4, record 2, French, - nanotechnologie
