Femtosecond
A femtosecond (fs) is a unit of time equal to 10^-15 seconds, or one quadrillionth of a second.
History/Origin
The femtosecond was introduced in the 20th century with advancements in ultrafast laser technology, enabling measurement and manipulation of phenomena occurring on extremely short timescales.
Current Use
Femtoseconds are used in fields such as physics, chemistry, and biology to study ultrafast processes like chemical reactions, electron dynamics, and laser pulse durations.
Millisecond
A millisecond (ms) is a unit of time equal to one thousandth of a second.
History/Origin
The millisecond was introduced as a standard unit of time measurement with the development of precise timekeeping and scientific instrumentation in the 20th century, particularly with the advent of electronic clocks and digital technology.
Current Use
Milliseconds are widely used in computing, telecommunications, and scientific measurements to denote very short durations, such as in data processing, network latency, and high-frequency trading.
