Convert Microwatt per square metre to Milliwatt per square centimetre
Convert Microwatt per square metre (µW/m²) to Milliwatt per square centimetre (mW/cm²) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
mW/cm² = µW/m² × 1.000000000e-7
About Microwatt per square metre
The microwatt per square metre (µW/m²) equals 10⁻⁶ W/m². Encountered in geothermal science - deep crustal heat flux measurements in stable shield regions can reach a few µW/m² - and in bio-electromagnetic research for very low intensity radiation fields. 1 µW/m² = 10⁻⁶ W/m² = 10³ nW/m².
About Milliwatt per square centimetre
The milliwatt per square centimetre (mW/cm²) equals exactly 10 W/m² (1 mW = 10⁻³ W; 1 cm² = 10⁻⁴ m²). Widely used in photonics, laser safety standards (IEC 60825), and UV dosimetry. Solar irradiance at Earth's surface ≈ 100 mW/cm². 1 mW/cm² = 10 W/m² = 0.001 W/cm².
