Convert joule/second to nanowatt
Please provide values below to convert joule/second [J/s] to nanowatt [nW], or Convert nanowatt to joule/second.
1 J/s = 1000000000 nW. To convert joule/second to nanowatt, multiply the value by 1000000000; to go the other way, divide by it (1 nW = 1e-09 J/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 J/s = 1000000000 nW
- 1 nW = 1e-09 J/s
- 10 J/s = 10000000000 nW
- 100 J/s = 100000000000 nW
How to Convert Joule/second to Nanowatt
1 J/s = 1000000000 nW
Example: convert 15 J/s to nW:
15 J/s = 15 × 1000000000 nW = 15000000000 nW

Joule/second
The joule per second (J/s) is a unit of power representing the rate at which energy is transferred or converted, equivalent to one watt.
History/Origin
The joule per second has been used as a measure of power since the adoption of the SI system, where the watt (W) became the standard unit of power, with 1 J/s = 1 W.
Current Use
J/s is primarily used in scientific and engineering contexts to quantify power, especially in physics and electrical engineering, often interchangeably with watts.
Nanowatt
A nanowatt (nW) is a unit of power equal to one billionth of a watt (10^-9 W).
History/Origin
The nanowatt is derived from the SI unit watt, with the prefix 'nano-' indicating a factor of 10^-9. It has been used in scientific and engineering contexts to measure very small power levels, especially in electronics and nanotechnology.
Current Use
Nanowatts are used in fields requiring precise measurement of tiny power quantities, such as in sensor technology, low-power electronics, and nanotechnology research.
