One billionth of a meter.
A unit of length equal to one billionth of a meter (.000000001 meter).
Is a unit of measurement of light wavelength. A nanometer is one millionth of a millimeter. Once called a millimicron, it is used to represent wavelength. Abbreviated nm.
Equivalent to 0.039 micro-inches
1 nanometer is equal to: Metric kilometer 1e-12 meter 1e-09 decimeter 1e-08 centimeter 1e-07 millimeter 1e-06 micrometre (micron) 0.001 angstrom 10
