1 nanometer (nm) = 0.001 micrometers (µm). To convert, divide by 1,000: µm = nm ÷ 1,000. For example, 500 nm = 0.5 µm.
µm = nm ÷ 1,000

The two units
Nanometer (nm). One billionth of a meter, the scale used for light wavelengths and chip features.
Micrometer (µm). One millionth of a meter, also called a micron.
Because both units are defined in terms of the same base unit, the factor 0.001 is exact, not a rounded measurement.

Questions people ask
- How many micrometers are in a nanometer?
- 0.001, exactly.
- How do you convert nanometers to micrometers?
- µm = nm ÷ 1,000. It is the same as dividing by 1,000.
- How do you convert micrometers back to nanometers?
- nm = µm × 1,000. See micrometers to nanometers.
