About these units
Nanometer (nm)
- Definition
- A nanometer (nm) is one billionth of a meter, the scale of atoms, molecules, and wavelengths of light.
- History
- It combines the SI prefix "nano-" (one billionth) with the meter and became common with the rise of nanotechnology.
- Current use
- Nanometers measure the wavelengths of visible light (about 380–750 nm) and the feature sizes of modern microchips.
Foot (ft)
- Definition
- A foot (ft) is an imperial unit of length equal to 12 inches or exactly 0.3048 meters.
- History
- Derived from the human foot, it varied across regions until the international foot was defined in 1959.
- Current use
- Feet are widely used for height, room dimensions, and aviation altitude, especially in the US and UK.
