Convert Nanoohm-metres to Abohm-centimetres
Convert Nanoohm-metres (nΩ·m) to Abohm-centimetres (abΩ·cm) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
abΩ·cm = nΩ·m × 100
About Nanoohm-metres
The nanoohm-metre (nΩ·m) equals 10⁻⁹ Ω·m, the most convenient scale for the resistivity of metals. Silver (1.59), copper (1.68), gold (2.44), and aluminium (2.82) all have bulk room-temperature resistivities expressible as low single-digit nΩ·m values; thin-film interconnect resistance targets in advanced IC nodes are set in nΩ·m. 1 nΩ·m = 10⁻⁹ Ω·m = 0.1 µΩ·cm.
About Abohm-centimetres
The abohm-centimetre (abΩ·cm) is the resistivity unit of the CGS-EMU system, equal to 10⁻⁹ Ω × 0.01 m = 10⁻¹¹ Ω·m. It appears in nineteenth-century electromagnetic analysis of telegraph cables and dynamo windings; silver, the best metallic conductor, has resistivity ≈1.59 nΩ·m = 159 abΩ·cm. 1 abΩ·cm = 10⁻¹¹ Ω·m.
