Abstract:
The analysis reveals interesting patterns in research productivity and citation
activity over time. The year 2020 stands out as the period with the highest
research output, while the early years had limited publication and citation
activity. The findings also highlight influential authors in the field, such as Sitti
M and Li Y, who have made significant contributions and achieved high H-
indices and citation counts. The study further examines the publication types
and sources that contribute to nanorobot research, emphasizing the
predominance of articles and the impact of journals such as IEEE Robotics
and Automation Letters. The analysis also sheds light on global collaboration,
with China and the United States leading in terms of research output, followed
by countries like India, Japan, and Iran. Moreover, the study identifies highly
cited papers that have played a pivotal role in shaping the field of
nanorobotics. These findings provide valuable insights into the research
landscape of nanorobotics, including trends in research output, influential
authors and sources, and global collaborations. The analysis contributes to
the understanding of the field's development, impact, and knowledge diffusion,
offering a comprehensive overview of the research output in nanorobotics.
Researchers, scholars, and practitioners interested in nanorobotics will
benefit from the identified influential papers and the understanding of key
contributors and research trends. This scientometric analysis serves as a
valuable resource for further exploration, advancement, and interdisciplinary
collaborations in the field of nanorobotics.
