Convert attojoule/second to picowatt
Please provide values below to convert attojoule/second [aJ/s] to picowatt [pW], or Convert picowatt to attojoule/second.
1 aJ/s = 1e-06 pW. To convert attojoule/second to picowatt, multiply the value by 1e-06; to go the other way, divide by it (1 pW = 1000000 aJ/s). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 aJ/s = 1e-06 pW
- 1 pW = 1000000 aJ/s
- 10 aJ/s = 1e-05 pW
- 100 aJ/s = 0.0001 pW
How to Convert Attojoule/second to Picowatt
1 aJ/s = 1e-06 pW
Example: convert 15 aJ/s to pW:
15 aJ/s = 15 × 1e-06 pW = 1.5e-05 pW

Attojoule/second
An attojoule per second (aJ/s) is a unit of power representing the rate of energy transfer or conversion of one attojoule (10^-18 joules) per second.
History/Origin
The attojoule is a relatively recent SI prefix introduced to measure extremely small quantities of energy, and its use in power units like aJ/s has emerged with advancements in nanotechnology and quantum physics, though it remains a specialized unit with limited historical usage.
Current Use
The aJ/s is used in scientific research involving extremely low power measurements, such as in quantum physics, nanotechnology, and energy transfer studies at the atomic or molecular scale.
Picowatt
A picowatt (pW) is a unit of power equal to one trillionth (10^-12) of a watt.
History/Origin
The picowatt was introduced as part of the SI prefixes to measure extremely small amounts of power, especially in scientific and technological contexts, following the standardization of the watt as the SI unit of power.
Current Use
Picowatts are used in fields such as electronics, physics, and biology to quantify very low power levels, including in sensor measurements, quantum physics, and nanotechnology applications.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 attojoule/second in picowatt?
1 attojoule/second (aJ/s) = 1e-06 picowatt (pW).
How do you convert attojoule/second to picowatt?
Multiply the attojoule/second value by 1e-06. For example, 25 aJ/s × 1e-06 = 2.5e-05 pW.
What is 10 attojoule/second in picowatt?
10 aJ/s = 1e-05 pW.
Which unit is larger, the attojoule/second or the picowatt?
The picowatt is the larger unit: 1 aJ/s equals only 1e-06 pW.
