Conversion Formula
μK/W = mK/W × 1000
About Millikelvin per watt
The millikelvin per watt (mK/W) equals exactly 10⁻³ K/W. It is used for ultra-low thermal resistances in high-conductivity materials such as diamond heat spreaders (≈ 0.3 mK/W per mm thickness for 1 cm² area), liquid metal TIMs, and cryogenic heat links. Measuring at this scale requires precision power dissipation and calorimetric temperature sensing. 1 mK/W = 10⁻³ K/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.
