How to convert X-units to nanometers
1 x-unit is equal to 0.000100208 nanometers, and 1 nanometer is equal to 9,979.243174 X-units. To convert, multiply by the conversion factor:
nanometers = X-units × 0.000100208
nanometers = X-units ÷ 9,979.243174Example: convert 15 xu to nm: 15 × 0.000100208 = 0.00150312 nm.

About the x-unit
The X-unit (about 1.002 × 10⁻¹³ m) was used to express X-ray and gamma-ray wavelengths before the ångström and picometer became standard.
