Convert attosecond to femtosecond
Please provide values below to convert attosecond [as] to femtosecond [fs], or Convert femtosecond to attosecond.
1 as = 0.001 fs. To convert attosecond to femtosecond, multiply the value by 0.001; to go the other way, divide by it (1 fs = 1000 as). Both units measure time and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 as = 0.001 fs
- 1 fs = 1000 as
- 10 as = 0.01 fs
- 100 as = 0.1 fs
How to Convert Attosecond to Femtosecond
1 as = 0.001 fs
Example: convert 15 as to fs:
15 as = 15 × 0.001 fs = 0.015 fs

Attosecond
An attosecond is a unit of time equal to 10^-18 seconds, used to measure extremely short durations, particularly in atomic and subatomic processes.
History/Origin
The attosecond was introduced in the early 21st century as scientists developed ultrafast laser techniques to observe electron dynamics, marking a significant advancement in time measurement at atomic scales.
Current Use
Attoseconds are primarily used in physics and chemistry to study ultrafast phenomena such as electron movements, chemical reactions, and quantum dynamics, often through attosecond laser pulses and spectroscopy.
Femtosecond
A femtosecond (fs) is a unit of time equal to 10^-15 seconds, or one quadrillionth of a second.
History/Origin
The femtosecond was introduced in the 20th century with advancements in ultrafast laser technology, enabling measurement and manipulation of phenomena occurring on extremely short timescales.
Current Use
Femtoseconds are used in fields such as physics, chemistry, and biology to study ultrafast processes like chemical reactions, electron dynamics, and laser pulse durations.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 attosecond in femtosecond?
1 attosecond (as) = 0.001 femtosecond (fs).
How do you convert attosecond to femtosecond?
Multiply the attosecond value by 0.001. For example, 25 as × 0.001 = 0.025 fs.
What is 10 attosecond in femtosecond?
10 as = 0.01 fs.
Which unit is larger, the attosecond or the femtosecond?
The femtosecond is the larger unit: 1 as equals only 0.001 fs.
