To help compare different orders of magnitude this page lists lengths between 10-7 and 10-6 m (100 nm and 1 µm).

Distances shorter than 100 nm

  • 100 nm — greatest particle size that can fit through a surgical mask
  • 120 nm — greatest particle size that can fit through a ULPA filter
  • 125 nm — standard depth of pits on compact discs (width: 500 nm, length: 850 nm to 3.5 µm)
  • 180 nm — typical length of the rabies virus
  • 200 nm — typical size of a Mycoplasma bacterium, among the smallest bacteria
  • 280 nm — near ultraviolet wavelength
  • 300 nm — greatest particle size that can fit through a HEPA filter
  • 380-420 nm — wavelength of violet light (see color and optical spectrum)
  • 420-440 nm — wavelength of indigo light
  • 440-500 nm — wavelength of blue light
  • 500-520 nm — wavelength of cyan light
  • 520-565 nm — wavelength of green light
  • 565-590 nm — wavelength of yellow light
  • 590-625 nm — wavelength of orange light
  • 625-740 nm — wavelength of red light
