About Micronewtons per metre
The micronewton per metre (µN/m) equals 10⁻⁶ N/m, used in precision thin-film capillarity studies and cryogenic surface-tension measurements. Liquid helium-4 at 2 K has a surface tension of ~0.37 mN/m (370 µN/m); liquid ³He near absolute zero is even lower. Numerically identical to µJ/m². 1 µN/m = 10⁻³ mN/m.
About Nanonewtons per metre
The nanonewton per metre (nN/m) equals 10⁻⁹ N/m, encountered in AFM force spectroscopy for interfacial line-tension measurements and wetting studies on nanostructured surfaces. Colloidal particle contact lines at fluid interfaces can exert forces in the nN/m range. 1 nN/m = 10⁻³ µN/m = 10⁻⁶ mN/m.
