Nanometer to Attometer Converter

Convert nanometers (nm) to attometers (am). 1 nm = 1,000,000,000 am.

1 nm = 1,000,000,000 am

Attometer to Nanometer converter

How to convert nanometers to attometers

1 nanometer is equal to 1,000,000,000 attometers, and 1 attometer is equal to 1 × 10⁻⁹ nanometers. To convert, multiply by the conversion factor:

attometers = nanometers × 1,000,000,000
attometers = nanometers ÷ 1 × 10⁻⁹

Example: convert 1 nm to am: 1 × 1,000,000,000 = 1,000,000,000 am.

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)

About the attometer

An attometer is 10⁻¹⁸ meters. It's used in particle physics, for example as an upper bound on the size of quarks and electrons.

Symbol: am · 1 am = 1 × 10⁻¹⁸ m · Category: Metric (SI)

Frequently asked questions

How many attometers are in a nanometer?

There are 1,000,000,000 attometers in 1 nanometer (nm).

How many nanometers are in a attometer?

1 attometer (am) equals 1 × 10⁻⁹ nanometers.

How do I convert nanometers to attometers?

Multiply the length in nanometers by 1,000,000,000. For example, 1 nm × 1,000,000,000 = 1,000,000,000 am.

How do I convert attometers to nanometers?

Divide the length in attometers by 1,000,000,000, or multiply it by 1 × 10⁻⁹. You can also use the Attometer to Nanometer converter.
