Forms: 1800s– Ångström, 1800s– Ångstrom, 1800s– Angström, 1800s– Angstrom, 1900s– ångström, 1900s– ångstrom, 1900s– angström, 1900s– angstrom.

Origin: From a proper name. Etymon: proper name Ångström.

Etymology: < the name of Anders Jonas Ångström (1814–74), Swedish physicist, who first used the unit in 1868.

A unit of length equal to one hundred-millionth of a centimetre (10⁻⁸ cm), used mainly to express wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation and dimensions on an atomic or molecular scale. Also (and in earliest use) angstrom unit. Symbol Å, ÅU (also AU).The International Ångström (I.Å.) was defined in 1907 in terms of the wavelength of a red line in the emission spectrum of cadmium which in standard conditions is 6438·4696 I.Å. When the metre was defined in terms of the wavelength of a line in the spectrum of krypton in 1960 the angstrom became exactly equal to 10⁻¹⁰ m (0.1 nanometres).
