Knowledge Expansion in Applied Science: A Bibliometric Study of Laser Medicine and Polyimide Chemistry

  • Conference paper
Dynamics of Science-Based Innovation

Abstract

Technological innovations are to a large extent the result of research and development (R&D) activities. Therefore, the process of interaction between science and technology is an important topic for science and technology policy and R&D management. Systematic investigation of this process is also important for the general understanding of the development of technological innovations.
