I certainly used angstoms when I did my degree in South Africa in the late 1960's. Today I tutor physics to 17 & 18 year-olds (in the UK) and everything is certainly in nm.

Is this peculiar to this particular scientific discipline? http://www.newsroom.ucla.edu/portal/ucla/new-microscope-allows-atoms-to-1569 69.aspx
