Right solution if you were wanting the physical unit. However, as a  
more general warning, it may be useful to know that BibTeX (the  
program that makes the bibliography, with data either from BibDesk or  
from your personal data-base) will convert uppercase letters in the  
title fields to lowercase, unless they are surrounded by braces. So,  
{\AA} would have most probably worked as well. This applies, for  
instance, to person names appearing in the title of a paper, etc.

Best,
