Nanometer

A nanometer is a unit of length in the metric system, equal to one billionth of a meter.

History/Origin

The term “nanometer” gained prominence in the late 20th century with the advent of nanotechnology and the development of microscopes capable of observing objects at that scale.

Current Use

The nanometer is commonly used to express dimensions on an atomic and molecular scale. It is used to specify the wavelength of electromagnetic radiation near the visible part of the spectrum and in the field of nanotechnology.


Chain

A chain is a unit of length equal to 66 feet, or 22 yards.

History/Origin

The chain was developed by English surveyor Edmund Gunter in the early 17th century. It was designed to be a convenient length for surveying land.

Current Use

The chain is still used in some surveying applications and is the length of a cricket pitch.
