What does centijoule per second measure?

Centijoule per second quantifies power as hundredths of a joule transferred every second, representing small steady power rates.

Why use attowatt as a power unit?

Attowatt is used to express vanishingly small power levels, especially in nanoscale electronics and ultra-sensitive scientific instruments.

How is conversion between cJ/s and aW performed?

Conversion uses the formula 1 cJ/s equals 10^16 aW, scaling centijoule per second values to attowatt units accordingly.
