What is the proton Compton wavelength?

It is the quantum wavelength characteristic to a proton defined by λ_p = h/(m_p c), involving Planck’s constant, proton mass, and speed of light.

Why convert proton Compton wavelength to nanometres?

Converting to nanometres allows relating quantum proton scales to optical and electromagnetic wavelengths commonly used in practical physics.

Are the converted nanometre values used in typical optics?

No, because the proton Compton wavelength is extremely small, converted values in nanometres are far below typical optical wavelengths.
