Abohm Centimeter

abΩ·cm

Definition

An extremely small unit of electric resistivity in the CGS electromagnetic system equal to 1.0E-11 ohm meters. Used for measuring ultra-low resistivity materials in specialized scientific and engineering applications.

History/Origin

Part of the CGS electromagnetic system of units, where "ab" stands for "absolute." The abohm centimeter was used in early electrical measurements before the adoption of the SI system for precise resistivity characterization.

Current Use

Used in specialized scientific research, particularly in physics and materials science for measuring ultra-low resistivity materials. Still referenced in some technical literature and historical measurements.

Ohm Meter

Ω·m

Definition

The SI base unit of electric resistivity, representing the resistance of a material per unit length when a current flows through it. One ohm meter is the resistivity of a material that has a resistance of one ohm when the current flows through a cube of the material with sides of one meter.

History/Origin

Named after Georg Simon Ohm, the German physicist who formulated Ohm's law in 1827. The ohm meter unit was established as part of the International System of Units (SI) to provide a standardized measure of electrical resistivity.

Current Use

Widely used in electrical engineering, materials science, and physics for measuring the electrical resistance properties of conductors, semiconductors, and insulators. Essential for designing electrical circuits, cables, and electronic components.
