Square Millimeter
A square millimeter (mm²) is a unit of area equal to the area of a square with sides measuring one millimeter.
History/Origin
The square millimeter has been used in scientific and engineering contexts for precise measurement of small areas, especially in fields like electronics and material science, as a subdivision of the metric system established in the 19th century.
Current Use
It is commonly used today in fields such as electronics, manufacturing, and scientific research to measure small surface areas, including the cross-sectional areas of wires and components.
Square Nanometer
A square nanometer (nm^2) is a unit of area equal to the area of a square with sides measuring one nanometer each.
History/Origin
The nanometer as a unit of length has been used since the development of nanotechnology in the late 20th century, with the concept of measuring extremely small areas like nm^2 emerging alongside advancements in microscopy and nanoscience.
Current Use
Square nanometers are primarily used in nanotechnology, materials science, and semiconductor industries to quantify extremely small surface areas, such as the dimensions of nanomaterials, thin films, and microscopic structures.
