Convert attowatt to picojoule/second
Please provide values below to convert attowatt [aW] to picojoule/second [pJ/s], or Convert picojoule/second to attowatt.
1 aW = 1e-06 pJ/s. To convert attowatt to picojoule/second, multiply the value by 1e-06; to go the other way, divide by it (1 pJ/s = 1000000 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 = 1e-06 pJ/s
- 1 pJ/s = 1000000 aW
- 10 aW = 1e-05 pJ/s
- 100 aW = 0.0001 pJ/s
How to Convert Attowatt to Picojoule/second
1 aW = 1e-06 pJ/s
Example: convert 15 aW to pJ/s:
15 aW = 15 × 1e-06 pJ/s = 1.5e-05 pJ/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.
Picojoule/second
A picojoule per second (pJ/s) is a unit of power equivalent to one trillionth of a joule per second, representing an extremely small rate of energy transfer.
History/Origin
The picojoule per second is derived from the SI units of energy (joule) and time (second), with 'pico' denoting a factor of 10^-12. It has been used in scientific contexts requiring precise measurement of very small power levels, especially in fields like nanotechnology and low-power electronics.
Current Use
This unit is used in scientific and engineering applications to quantify extremely low power levels, such as in nanotechnology, bioelectronics, and other fields where minute energy transfer rates are relevant.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 attowatt in picojoule/second?
1 attowatt (aW) = 1e-06 picojoule/second (pJ/s).
How do you convert attowatt to picojoule/second?
Multiply the attowatt value by 1e-06. For example, 25 aW × 1e-06 = 2.5e-05 pJ/s.
