    One quintillionth (10⁻¹⁸) of a second, or one thousandth of a femtosecond. Used in physics to measure the time it takes for light to travel across a molecule or for electrons to move between atoms.

    • An attosecond is so brief that light travels only a few nanometers in that time.
    • Scientists use attosecond lasers to observe electron motion in real time.
    • The attosecond pulse allowed researchers to capture the fastest processes in nature.
