What is a nanometer?
A nanometer is one billionth of a meter. Put another way, a million nanometers fit inside one millimeter.
This is the scale of molecules and light itself. Visible light has wavelengths from about 380 nanometers (violet) to 700 nanometers (red), and the tiny switches inside a computer chip are just a few nanometers wide.
In writing, the nanometer is usually shortened to "nm". One nanometer is 1.000000e-9 meters, and that ratio is what every figure on this page is built from.
