How to convert angstroms to nanometers
1 angstrom is equal to 0.1 nanometers, and 1 nanometer is equal to 10 angstroms. To convert, multiply by the conversion factor:
nanometers = angstroms × 0.1
nanometers = angstroms ÷ 10Example: convert 15 Å to nm: 15 × 0.1 = 1.5 nm.

About the angstrom
The ångström is 10⁻¹⁰ meters (0.1 nm). It's used for atomic radii, chemical bond lengths and crystal lattice spacing.
Symbol: Å · 1 Å = 1 × 10⁻¹⁰ m · Category: Metric (SI)
About the nanometer
A nanometer is one billionth of a meter. It's used for wavelengths of light (visible light is about 380–750 nm), molecules and chip manufacturing processes.
Symbol: nm · 1 nm = 1 × 10⁻⁹ m · Category: Metric (SI)
