Micrometer to Nanometers conversion
Our micrometer to nanometer(µm to nm) conversion tool is a free converter that enables you to convert from micrometer to nanometer easily.
How to Convert micrometer to nanometer
To convert a micrometer measurement(µm) to a nanometer measurement(nm), multiply the length by the conversion ratio. Since one Micrometers is equal to 1,000 Nanometer, you can use this simple formula to convert:
What is the formula to convert from micrometer to nanometer?
nanometer=µm * 1,000
Examples
Convert 5 micrometer to Nanometer
5 µm = (5 * 1,000) = 5,000nm
Convert 10 micrometer to Nanometer
10 µm = (10 * 1,000) = 10,000 nm
Convert 100 micrometer to Nanometer
100 µm = (100 * 1,000) = 100,000nm
Micrometer
What is a Micrometer?
Micrometer ormicrometre, also called micron is a metric unit of measure for length equal to 0.001 mm, or about 0.000039 inch. Its symbol is μm. The micrometre is commonly employed to measure the thickness or diameter of microscopic objects, such as microorganisms and colloidal particles.
Micrometer can be abbreviated as µm; for example, 1 Micrometer can be written as 1µm.
What is the Micrometer used for?
Micrometers are specially designed for the measurement of tiny objects. They allow for the exact measurement of any item that fits between the anvil and spindle. Standard types of micrometers can be used for the acceptable measurement of items under one inch in length, depth, and thickness.
Nanometer

What is the Nanometer used for?
Nanometers are used to measure the smallest things, usually the size of an atom or molecule. Typically, the size of transistors on a semiconductor-based processor is calculated in nanometers.
