A nanon is a shorter alternative to "nanometre", equal to a length of 10^-9 m. It may also be used to refer to objects or phenomena in or around the nanometre range. The nanon is analogous to the "micron", the latter being equivalent to "micrometre".
i) The new nanoparticles have a diametre of 40 nanons.
ii) This novel property of silicon can be attributed to periodic structures in the sub-nanon range.
