1 E-12 s

To help compare orders of magnitude of different times this page lists times between 10−12 seconds and 10−11 seconds (1 picosecond and 10 picoseconds). A picosecond is one millionth of one millionth of a second (0.000 000 000 001 seconds). "See also" times of other orders of magnitude.

* shorter times
* 1 picosecond – half-life of a bottom quark
* 2 picoseconds – switching time of the world's fastest transistor (604 GHz, as of 2005) [http://www.newscientist.com/article.ns?id=dn7253 Article]
* 3.3 picoseconds (approximately) – time taken for light to travel 1 millimeter
* longer times

The IBM 500GHz Silicon-Germanium transistor executes a singular instruction in about 4 picoseconds. [http://www.physlink.com/News/060622Transistor500GHz.cfm]
