How to convert nanometers to femtometers
1 nanometer is equal to 1,000,000 femtometers, and 1 femtometer is equal to 0.000001 nanometers. To convert, multiply by the conversion factor:
femtometers = nanometers × 1,000,000
femtometers = nanometers ÷ 0.000001Example: convert 1 nm to fm: 1 × 1,000,000 = 1,000,000 fm.

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 femtometer
A femtometer is 10⁻¹⁵ meters, the scale of atomic nuclei. A proton has a radius of about 0.84 fm.
Symbol: fm · 1 fm = 1 × 10⁻¹⁵ m · Category: Metric (SI)
