How to Convert Micrometers to Nanometers

1 µm = 999.9999999999999 nm

1 nm = 0.001 µm

Example: convert 10 µm to nm: 10 µm = 10 × 999.9999999999999 µm = 9999.999999999998 µm

Micrometers

Definition: A micrometer (µm) is a unit of length in the metric system equal to one-millionth of a meter (1/1,000,000 m).

History: The micrometer, also known as a micron, was first introduced in the metric system to measure extremely small distances. It is widely used in fields such as physics, engineering, and biology to measure microscopic objects.

Nanometers

Definition: A nanometer (nm) is a unit of length equal to one-billionth of a meter (1/1,000,000,000 m).

History: The nanometer gained prominence with advances in nanotechnology and quantum physics. It is commonly used to measure atomic and molecular structures, as well as wavelengths of light.
