Meters to Nanometers Converter

How to Convert Meters to Nanometers

The conversion from meters (m) to nanometers (nm) is a direct multiplication.

For more information about meters as a unit of measurement, visit our meters page.

Formula

Nanometers = Meters × 1,000,000,000

or

nm = m × 1,000,000,000

Step-by-step process

1. Take the measurement in meters
2. Multiply that number by 1,000,000,000
3. The result is the equivalent wavelength in nanometers.

Examples

• 1 m = 1 × 1,000,000,000 = 1,000,000,000 nm
