How are Patents Protected in Nanotechnology?

To protect their innovations, researchers and companies in nanotechnology file patents. The process involves disclosing detailed information about the invention and demonstrating its novelty, non-obviousness, and utility. Once granted, patents provide the holder with exclusive rights to the invention for a set period, typically 20 years from the filing date. However, the intricate nature of nanotechnology can sometimes make it challenging to identify whether a new invention infringes on existing patents.
