How to convert Centimeters to Micrometers
Multiply the centimeters value by 10,000: 1 cm = 10,000 µm. Going the other way, 1 µm = 1e-4 cm, so divide by 10,000 or use the Micrometers to Centimeters converter.
About these units
Centimeters (cm)
A centimeter is one hundredth of a meter, roughly the width of a fingernail. It is the everyday metric unit for body measurements and small objects; one inch is exactly 2.54 cm.
Micrometers (µm)
A micrometer, or micron, is one millionth of a meter. Cells, fine particles and the thickness of thin films are typically measured in micrometers.
