Nanometer (nm). A nanometer is one billionth of a meter, used for wavelengths of light and the size of molecules.
Barleycorn (bc). The barleycorn is one third of an inch (about 8.47 mm), historically the length of a grain of barley.
There are 1.1811 × 10⁻⁷ barleycorns in one nanometer.
Multiply the number of nanometers by 1.1811 × 10⁻⁷. For example, 10 nanometers equal 1.1811 × 10⁻⁶ barleycorns.
One barleycorn equals 8,466,700 nanometers.
0.00011811 barleycorns. Other common values: 100 nanometers = 1.1811 × 10⁻⁵ barleycorns and 10,000 nanometers = 0.0011811 barleycorns.
