micron [µ]
Definition: A micron is a unit of length equal to one-millionth of a meter.
Historyandorigin: It is part of the metric system, introduced in the late 18th century.
CurrentUse: It is used in high-precision measurements, such as in microelectronics.
funfact: The term 'micron' is an older name for the micrometer.

How to Convert kilometer to micron
1 kilometer [km] = 1000000000 micron [µ]
1 micron [µ] = 1.E-9 kilometer [km]
we use cross multiplication method
kilometer [km] → micron [µ]
1 → 1000000000
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*1000000000=1*x
by simplifying
x=1500000000
