If you mean 10^-7 there is no commonly used prefix for that.
If you really mean 10 E-7, there is. Because 10 E-7 stands for 10*10^-7 which is = 10^-6, the correct answer would be micro, or µ (Greek letter my, you might not see it because it's greek, and your computer doesn't have a greek character set; it looks lik a u)

Well, if we can combine prefixes, I suppose we could make up a couple.
10 e -9, nano, * 10 e 2, hecto = 1 hn whatever.
10 e -6, micro, * 10 e -1, deci = 1 du whatever.
a hectonanometer is 10 e -7 meters; a decimicroliter is 10 e -7 liters.

there isn't a metric prefix for that value, the closest you can get is micro for 10e-6 and nano for 10e-9

there's none. prefixes are for multiples of 3 (which means thousands) 10E-3; 10E-6; 10E-9; 10E-12... I can't recall them now though...

ok i'm gonna assume you mean 1E-7 and that's hepta-
1E-6 is micro- fyi. to make things easier we just put it in micro scale and call it a day.
