What does centijoule per second measure?

It is a power unit equal to one hundredth of a joule per second, quantifying energy transfer at very small steady levels.

Why convert centijoule per second to picowatt?

To express power levels at even smaller scales, which is useful for ultra-low-power measurements in sensitive technology.

Where is the picowatt unit commonly used?

It is used in contexts like cryogenic detectors, low-power microelectronics, and faint astronomical signal measurements.
