Conversion Formula
mΩ·cm = µΩ·m × 0.1
About Microohm-metres
The microohm-metre (µΩ·m) equals 10⁻⁶ Ω·m and is numerically identical to 1 Ω·mm²/m used in the cable industry. Nichrome resistance wire has resistivity ≈1.0-1.1 µΩ·m; stainless steel is 0.69-0.72 µΩ·m; manganin alloy (for precision shunts) is about 0.48 µΩ·m. 1 µΩ·m = 10⁻⁶ Ω·m = 1 Ω·mm²/m.
About Milliohm-centimetres
The milliohm-centimetre (mΩ·cm) equals 10⁻⁵ Ω·m, a scale used for poorly conducting alloys and heavily doped semiconductors at low temperature. Graphite perpendicular to the basal plane has resistivity around 3-10 mΩ·cm; hot-pressed sintered tungsten carbide compacts are 0.2-0.5 mΩ·cm; heavily B-doped silicon at degeneracy is ∼0.1 mΩ·cm. 1 mΩ·cm = 10⁻⁵ Ω·m.
