What Is This Tool?
This tool allows you to convert electrical resistivity measurements from ohm meter, the SI derived unit for bulk resistivity, to microhm centimeter, a smaller unit used for precise characterization of low-resistivity materials such as metals and thin films.
How to Use This Tool?
- Enter the resistivity value in ohm meters (Ω·m) you want to convert
- Select microhm centimeter (µΩ·cm) as the target unit
- Click convert to obtain the equivalent resistivity in microhm centimeters
- Use the converted value for material characterization or engineering calculations
Key Features
- Converts electrical resistivity values between ohm meter and microhm centimeter units
- Provides quick calculations using the exact conversion factor
- Supports use cases in materials science, electrical engineering, geophysics, and condensed-matter research
- Browser-based and easy to use without installing any software
- Useful for expressing resistivity in appropriate units depending on material type and context
Examples
- 0.5 Ohm meter converts to 50,000,000 Microhm centimeter
- 2 Ohm meter converts to 200,000,000 Microhm centimeter
Common Use Cases
- Specifying bulk resistivity of conductors, insulators, and semiconductors
- Reporting soil or rock resistivity in geophysical and hydrogeological surveys
- Designing cable and conductor sizes based on material resistivity
- Characterizing low-resistivity thin films and bulk conductors in materials science
- Specifying residual resistivity and quality of conductors in cryogenic and superconducting studies
Tips & Best Practices
- Double-check unit selection to ensure correct conversion direction
- Be cautious handling very large numbers resulting from conversion
- Use microhm centimeter for low-resistivity materials to maintain precision
- Prefer ohm meter for bulk materials with higher resistivity to avoid confusion
- Apply the conversion factor consistently for accurate results
Limitations
- Large conversion factors can produce very large numbers that require careful attention
- Microhm centimeter is best suited for low resistivity values and may be less clear for high resistivity samples
- Ohm meter remains preferable for bulk material resistivity to avoid complexity

Key Terminology
- Ohm meter (Ω·m)
- The SI derived unit of electrical resistivity quantifying how strongly a material opposes electric current flow.
- Microhm centimeter (µΩ·cm)
- A unit of electrical resistivity equal to 1×10⁻⁶ ohm-centimeter, used especially for low-resistivity materials.
- Electrical resistivity
- A measure of a material's intrinsic opposition to the flow of electric current based on its length and cross-sectional area.
