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.
Centijoule/second
A centijoule per second (cJ/s) is a unit of power representing the rate at which energy is transferred or converted, equivalent to 0.01 joules per second.
History/Origin
The centijoule per second is derived from the SI unit joule, with the prefix centi indicating a hundredth, and is used in contexts requiring smaller power measurements. It has been in use as a supplementary unit in scientific and engineering fields where precise, small-scale power measurements are needed.
Current Use
The cJ/s is used in scientific research, engineering, and technical applications involving small power quantities, such as in micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS), low-power electronics, and detailed energy transfer analyses within the 'Power' converter category.
