What does one centiwatt represent?

One centiwatt is a power unit equal to one hundredth of a watt, used to measure very low power levels.

Why convert centiwatt to picojoule per second?

Converting helps express extremely small power levels in micro- and nano-scale electronics and photonic systems.

Are the converted picojoule per second values large or small numbers?

They often result in very large numbers because picojoule per second represents very tiny power units.
