Scientific collaboration in the sphere of carbon nanostructures in the mirror of bibliometric analysis

This article provides bibliometric analysis of Russian scientists’ collaboration in the sphere of carbon nanostructures, a major trend in nanotechnology. In particular, it is shown that international coauthorship significantly increases the citation of Russian publications, while purely Russian coauthored publications are cited even less frequently, on average, than single-author publications. The initial information for analysis was taken from the Science Citation Index Expanded (SCIE) database.
