Angstrom scale | definition of Angstrom scale by Medical dictionary
Ǻng·ström scale (ang'strŏm),
a table of wavelengths of a large number of light rays corresponding to the equivalent number of Fraunhofer lines in the spectrum.
Ångström, Anders J., Swedish physicist, 1814-1874.
- a unit of wavelength, 10-10
m, roughly the diameter of an atom; equivalent to 0.1 nm. Synonym(s): Ångström unit
