To convert nanoseconds to attoseconds, multiply the value by 1,000,000,000. To go the other way, multiply attoseconds by 1 × 10⁻⁹ to get nanoseconds.

Try this example →Nanosecond (ns). A nanosecond is one billionth of a second — light travels about 30 cm in that time.
Attosecond (as). An attosecond is 10⁻¹⁸ of a second, the scale of electron motion in atoms.
There are 1,000,000,000 attoseconds in one nanosecond.
Multiply the number of nanoseconds by 1,000,000,000. For example, 10 nanoseconds equal 10,000,000,000 attoseconds.
One attosecond equals 1 × 10⁻⁹ nanoseconds.
12,000,000,000 attoseconds. Other common values: 5 nanoseconds = 5,000,000,000 attoseconds and 100 nanoseconds = 100,000,000,000 attoseconds.
