Millijoules per square centimeter to joules per square meter
Type a value in mJ/cm² to get it in J/m² instantly.
100J/m²
That's 2× as strong as a dose that inactivates most viruses, while a sunburn dose for fair skin is 2.5× stronger.
Convert the other way: J/m² to mJ/cm²
What it means
How strong a dose is that?
Dose = irradiance × time. Germicidal doses are at 254 nm; sunburn references are erythema-weighted, so they do not compare directly with disinfection.
The math
How to convert mJ/cm² to J/m²
To convert millijoules per square centimeter to joules per square meter, multiply by 10.
Example: 10 mJ/cm² × 10 = 100 J/m².
In the other direction, 1 J/m² = 0.1 mJ/cm².
