It is equal in length to one ten-billionth of a metre or 0.1 nanometres (0.1nm).
It is approximately the size of an atom and is mostly used to measure very small distances for example wavelengths of light.
The mil is a unit of length in the imperial unit system and uses the symbol mil (or sometimes thou).
