About Ohm-centimetres
The ohm-centimetre (Ω·cm) equals 0.01 Ω·m, the most widely used unit for semiconductor resistivity in device characterisation. Silicon wafers are specified in Ω·cm: lightly doped n-type Si is 100-10 000 Ω·cm; device-grade p-type Si is 1-50 Ω·cm; germanium is ≈0.46 Ω·cm. ASTM F84 and SEMI standards define silicon resistivity measurements in Ω·cm. 1 Ω·cm = 0.01 Ω·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.
