What are Nanojoule and Kiloelectron-volt

Definition of Nanojoule

A nanojoule (nJ) is a unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI) that equals one billionth of a joule (1 nJ = 10^-9 J). It's a minuscule energy measurement often used in physics and chemistry to express the energy levels of particles, atoms, and small molecules. Nanojoules are particularly relevant in the fields of microelectronics and nanotechnology, where energy interactions occur on a very small scale.

Definition of Kiloelectron-volt

A kiloelectron-volt (keV) is a unit of energy commonly used in the field of particle physics and electromagnetism. One kiloelectron-volt is equivalent to 1,000 electron-volts (eV) and is defined as the amount of kinetic energy gained or lost by a single electron accelerating from rest through an electric potential difference of one kilovolt. It's a convenient unit for expressing energy levels on an atomic scale and is often used to describe the energies of X-rays and gamma rays.
