How to Convert Attojoule to Microjoule

1 aJ = 1e-12 µJ

Example: convert 15 aJ to µJ:
15 aJ = 15 × 1e-12 µJ = 1.5e-11 µJ


Attojoule to Microjoule Conversion Table

attojoule microjoule

Attojoule

An attojoule (aJ) is a unit of energy equal to 10^-18 joules.

History/Origin

The attojoule was introduced as part of the SI prefixes to measure extremely small amounts of energy, particularly in fields like nanotechnology and quantum physics, as the need to quantify very tiny energy scales grew.

Current Use

The attojoule is used in scientific research to measure minute energy quantities, such as in nanotechnology, quantum computing, and molecular biology, where energies involved are extremely small.


Microjoule

A microjoule (µJ) is a unit of energy equal to one millionth of a joule, used to measure small amounts of energy.

History/Origin

The microjoule was introduced as part of the metric system to facilitate the measurement of very small energy quantities, especially in scientific and engineering contexts, with the adoption of the International System of Units (SI).

Current Use

Microjoules are commonly used in fields such as electronics, physics, and biology to quantify small energy transfers, signals, or reactions, often in research and technical applications.
