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

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.
Femtojoule/second
A femtojoule per second (fJ/s) is a unit of power representing the rate of energy transfer of one femtojoule (10^-15 joules) per second.
History/Origin
The femtojoule/second unit emerged with the development of high-precision measurements in nanotechnology and quantum physics, where extremely small energy transfer rates are relevant. It is derived from the SI units of energy (joule) and time (second), with 'femto' denoting 10^-15.
Current Use
The femtojoule/second is used in scientific research to quantify very small power levels, particularly in fields like nanotechnology, quantum computing, and molecular physics, where energy transfer rates are extremely low.
