A decimeter is ten times smaller than a meter
Nanometer
A nanometre.
The question makes no sense. A centimetre is a unit of measurement of distance. A diameter is the name of a line across a circle.
The distance which is 10^-3 larger is 1.003 metres, and there is no specific name for it. The name of the distance which is 10^-3 times as large (not the same thing!) is a millimetre.
The name of the distance that is 10 times smaller than a centimeter is a millimeter. A millimeter is one thousandth of a meter.
