Convert nanowatt to picojoule/second
Please provide values below to convert nanowatt [nW] to picojoule/second [pJ/s], or Convert picojoule/second to nanowatt.
1 nW = 1000 pJ/s. To convert nanowatt to picojoule/second, multiply the value by 1000; to go the other way, divide by it (1 pJ/s = 0.001 nW). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 nW = 1000 pJ/s
- 1 pJ/s = 0.001 nW
- 10 nW = 10000 pJ/s
- 100 nW = 100000 pJ/s
How to Convert Nanowatt to Picojoule/second
1 nW = 1000 pJ/s
Example: convert 15 nW to pJ/s:
15 nW = 15 × 1000 pJ/s = 15000 pJ/s

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.
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.
