To convert attoseconds to nanoseconds, multiply the value by 1 × 10⁻⁹. To go the other way, multiply nanoseconds by 1,000,000,000 to get attoseconds.
| Attoseconds (as) | Nanoseconds (ns) |
|---|---|
| 1 as | 1 × 10⁻⁹ ns |
| 5 as | 5 × 10⁻⁹ ns |
| 10 as | 1 × 10⁻⁸ ns |
| 25 as | 2.5 × 10⁻⁸ ns |
| 50 as | 5 × 10⁻⁸ ns |
| 100 as | 1 × 10⁻⁷ ns |
| 250 as | 2.5 × 10⁻⁷ ns |
| 500 as | 5 × 10⁻⁷ ns |
| 1,000 as | 1 × 10⁻⁶ ns |
| 2,500 as | 2.5 × 10⁻⁶ ns |
| 5,000 as | 5 × 10⁻⁶ ns |
| 10,000 as | 1 × 10⁻⁵ ns |
| 100,000 as | 0.0001 ns |
| 1,000,000 as | 0.001 ns |
Attosecond (as). An attosecond is 10⁻¹⁸ of a second, the scale of electron motion in atoms.
Nanosecond (ns). A nanosecond is one billionth of a second — light travels about 30 cm in that time.
There are 1 × 10⁻⁹ nanoseconds in one attosecond.
Multiply the number of attoseconds by 1 × 10⁻⁹. For example, 10 attoseconds equal 1 × 10⁻⁸ nanoseconds.
One nanosecond equals 1,000,000,000 attoseconds.
1 × 10⁻⁶ nanoseconds. Other common values: 100 attoseconds = 1 × 10⁻⁷ nanoseconds and 10,000 attoseconds = 1 × 10⁻⁵ nanoseconds.
