About These Units

Angstrom (Å)

An angstrom (Å) is a unit equal to 10⁻¹⁰ meters or 0.1 nanometers. Angstroms measure atomic and molecular dimensions, crystal structures, and electromagnetic wavelengths. A hydrogen atom is about 1.2 Å in diameter. Named after physicist Anders Jonas Ångström.

Thou (thou)

A thou, also called mil, is an imperial unit equal to 1/1000 inch or 0.0254 millimeters. Thou measurements are used in manufacturing, engineering, and specifying material thickness (plastic films, paper, wire diameter). One inch equals 1,000 thou.
