About Micrometer (µm)
One millionth of a meter, the micrometer (or micron) is essential in semiconductor manufacturing, biology, and materials science. Human red blood cells measure about 7 micrometers across, and chip fabrication processes are named by their transistor gate length in micrometers or nanometers.
About Fathom (ftm)
Traditionally equal to 6 feet (1.8288 meters), the fathom originated as the span of a sailor's outstretched arms and has been used for centuries to measure water depth. Nautical charts and depth soundings still reference fathoms in many maritime traditions, and Mark Twain's pen name came from the riverboat call 'mark twain' meaning two fathoms.
