Siemens

Definition

The SI base unit of electric conductance, representing the ease with which electric current flows through a material. One siemens is the conductance of a material that allows one ampere of current to flow when one volt is applied across it.

History/Origin

Named after Ernst Werner von Siemens, the German electrical engineer and inventor who founded the Siemens company. The siemens unit was established as the SI unit of conductance, replacing the older mho unit.

Current Use

Widely used in electrical engineering, electronics, and materials science for measuring the electrical conductivity of conductors, semiconductors, and insulators. Essential for designing electrical circuits and components.

Gemmho

gemmho

Definition

A unit of electric conductance equal to one millionth of a mho (micro-mho), or one microsiemens. Used in electronics and semiconductor applications for measuring very low conductance values.

History/Origin

Derived from the mho unit with the micro prefix, creating "gemmho" (giga-micro-mho). Used in electronics and semiconductor research before the widespread adoption of the siemens unit system.

Current Use

Used in some electronics and semiconductor applications for measuring very low conductance values. Still referenced in some technical literature and older electronic component specifications.
