Micro-

Micro- (symbol µ) is a unit prefix in the metric system denoting a factor of 10⁻⁶ (one millionth). Confirmed in 1960, the prefix comes from the Greek μικρός (mikrós), meaning "small".

The symbol for the prefix comes from the Greek letter μ (mu). It is the only SI prefix which uses a character not from the Latin alphabet.

Symbol encoding in character sets

For historical reasons, there are two different characters in Unicode, which appear slightly different in some fonts, although most fonts use the same glyph. The micro sign (µ) is encoded in the "Latin-1 Supplement" range identical to ISO/IEC 8859-1 (since 1985), at U+00B5 (Unicode 1.0, 1991). The Greek letter (μ) is encoded in the Greek range at U+03BC. According to The Unicode Consortium, the Greek letter character is preferred, but implementations must recognize the micro sign as well.
