1 nanometre
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
To help compare different orders of magnitudes this page lists lengths between 10−9 m (meter) and 10−8 m (1 nm and 10 nm).
- 1 nm = 1 nanometer = 1000 picometers = 10 Ångströms
- 1 nm — rough length of a sucrose molecule, as calculated by Albert Einstein
- 1.1 nm — diameter of a single-walled carbon nanotube
- 2 nm — diameter of DNA helix
- 3 nm — flying height of the head of a hard disk
- 6.8 nm — width of a hemoglobin molecule
