μK/W = K/W × 1000000
About Kelvin per watt
The kelvin per watt (K/W) is the SI coherent unit for thermal resistance, defined as the temperature rise (K) per unit of steady-state power dissipation (W). Used universally in electronic component datasheets (junction-to-ambient, junction-to-case), heat sink ratings, and thermal circuit analysis. A CPU heatsink at 0.3 K/W raises temperature 30 K per 100 W. 1 K/W = 1 °C/W.
About Microkelvin per watt
The microkelvin per watt (μK/W) equals exactly 10⁻⁶ K/W. Used in ultra-precision cryogenic and nanotechnology research to characterise thermal contact resistance of atomically bonded interfaces, van der Waals heterostructures, and superconducting qubit heat links at millikelvin temperatures. Also quoted for on-chip thermal connections in quantum processor prototypes. 1 μK/W = 10⁻⁶ K/W.
