Candela/Square Metre

The candela per square metre (cd/m²) is the SI unit of luminance, measuring the luminous intensity per unit area of light travelling in a given direction. It is also known as the nit. It is used to characterise the brightness of display screens and other light sources.

Candela/Square Centimetre

The candela per square centimetre (cd/cm²) is a unit of luminance equal to 10,000 candelas per square metre (10,000 nits). It is used in measurements where higher luminance values are involved, such as certain display technologies or high-intensity light sources.
