Convert attowatt to centijoule/second
Please provide values below to convert attowatt [aW] to centijoule/second [cJ/s], or Convert centijoule/second to attowatt.
1 aW = 1.0000e-16 cJ/s. To convert attowatt to centijoule/second, multiply the value by 1.0000e-16; to go the other way, divide by it (1 cJ/s = 1.0000e+16 aW). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 aW = 1.0000e-16 cJ/s
- 1 cJ/s = 1.0000e+16 aW
- 10 aW = 1.0000e-15 cJ/s
- 100 aW = 1.0000e-14 cJ/s
How to Convert Attowatt to Centijoule/second
1 aW = 1e-16 cJ/s
Example: convert 15 aW to cJ/s:
15 aW = 15 × 1e-16 cJ/s = 1.5e-15 cJ/s

Attowatt
An attowatt (aW) is a unit of power equal to 10^-18 watts, representing an extremely small amount of power.
History/Origin
The attowatt is part of the SI prefix system introduced to denote very small quantities, with 'atto-' representing 10^-18. It has been used mainly in scientific contexts to measure minuscule power levels.
Current Use
The attowatt is rarely used in practical applications but may be referenced in scientific research involving extremely low power measurements, such as in quantum physics or nanotechnology.
Centijoule/second
A centijoule per second (cJ/s) is a unit of power representing the rate at which energy is transferred or converted, equivalent to 0.01 joules per second.
History/Origin
The centijoule per second is derived from the SI unit joule, with the prefix centi indicating a hundredth, and is used in contexts requiring smaller power measurements. It has been in use as a supplementary unit in scientific and engineering fields where precise, small-scale power measurements are needed.
Current Use
The cJ/s is used in scientific research, engineering, and technical applications involving small power quantities, such as in micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS), low-power electronics, and detailed energy transfer analyses within the 'Power' converter category.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 attowatt in centijoule/second?
1 attowatt (aW) = 1.0000e-16 centijoule/second (cJ/s).
How do you convert attowatt to centijoule/second?
Multiply the attowatt value by 1.0000e-16. For example, 25 aW × 1.0000e-16 = 2.5000e-15 cJ/s.
What is 10 attowatt in centijoule/second?
10 aW = 1.0000e-15 cJ/s.
Which unit is larger, the attowatt or the centijoule/second?
The centijoule/second is the larger unit: 1 aW equals only 1.0000e-16 cJ/s.
