Nanometer




A nanometre ( of Length in the Metric System , equal to one billionth of a Metre , which is the current SI Base Unit of length. It can be written in Scientific Notation s as 1×10−9 m (engineering notation) or (exponential notation) — both meaning .

Picometre <<< Nanometre <<< Micrometre <<< Millimetre < Centimetre < Decimetre < Metre < Decametre < Hectometre < Kilometre

It is one of the more often used units for very small lengths, and equals ten Ångström , an internationally recognized non-SI unit of length. It is often associated with the field of Nanotechnology .

It is also the most common unit used to describe the Manufacturing Technology used in the Semiconductor industry.

Nanometry is the science of counting and measuring particles on the scale of nanometres.
