Convert joule/second to attowatt
Enter a value below to convert joule/second [J/s] to attowatt [aW]. Reverse conversion: Convert attowatt to joule/second.
1 J/s = 1.0000e+18 aW. To convert joule/second to attowatt, multiply the value by 1.0000e+18; to go the other way, divide by it (1 aW = 1.0000e-18 J/s). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

Joule/second: Definition and Use
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.
Attowatt: Definition and Use
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.
