Film thickness / volume

Relate a film's thickness, area, and volume (V = thickness × area). Fill any two and the third is computed.

Inputs

Fill any two fields; leave the one you want to compute blank.

Result

Enter values and calculate to see the result.

Interpretation

Fill any two of thickness, area, and volume; leave the third blank to compute it.

Formula

Film volume
V = thickness × area

Uniform film over the given area.

Assumptions & validity

Worked example

thickness = 100 nm, area = 100 mm² (= 1 cm²).

V = 100 nm × 100 mm² = 1×10⁻¹¹ m³ = 10 nL
