A nanometer (symbol: nm) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). It is defined as one billionth of a meter (1/1,000,000,000 m).

Current Use

Nanometers are used to measure wavelengths of light, atomic structures, and in nanotechnology. They are essential in fields like physics, chemistry, and electronics.

Centimeter (cm)

Definition

A centimeter (symbol: cm) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI), the current form of the metric system. It is defined as 1/100 meters.

Current Use

The centimeter, like the meter, is used in all sorts of applications worldwide (in countries that have undergone metrication) in instances where a smaller denomination of the meter is required. Height is commonly measured in centimeters outside of countries like the United States.
