Picometers (pm) describe atomic radii and X-ray wavelengths. A hydrogen atom is ~53 pm wide. Used in crystallography and semiconductor engineering. The Thou (also called Mil) is essential in precision engineering and manufacturing. For context, a standard sheet of paper is about 100 thou thick, while human hair measures approximately 20-30 thou in diameter. This unit is critical in machining tolerances, PCB design, and automotive engineering where exact measurements are crucial.
To convert between Picometer (pm) and Thou (Mil) (mil), use the following formulas:
1 Picometer (pm) = 3.937007874015748e-8 Thou (Mil) (mil)
1 Thou (Mil) (mil) = 25400000 Picometer (pm)
100 pm = 100 * 3.937007874015748e-8 mil = 0.000003937007874015748 mil
500 pm = 500 * 3.937007874015748e-8 mil = 0.00001968503937007874 mil
1000 pm = 1000 * 3.937007874015748e-8 mil = 0.00003937007874015748 mil
5000 pm = 5000 * 3.937007874015748e-8 mil = 0.0001968503937007874 mil
