How to Convert Terahertz to Nanoseconds

Frequency and period are inversely related. The formula is: T = 1 / f, where T is the period and f is the frequency.

Conversion Steps

  • The formula is: Period = 1 / Frequency
  • For example, to convert 420 THz to ns:
  1. Convert to hertz: 420 THz = 420 × 1.0e+12 = 4.2e+14 Hz
  2. Apply formula: T = 1 / 4.2e+14 Hz = 2.38095e-15 seconds
  3. Convert to nanoseconds: 2.38095e-15 s / 1.0e-9 = 0.42 ns

Reverse Conversion

To convert nanoseconds back to terahertz, use f = 1 / T:

  • 0.42 ns → f = 1 / 2.38095e-15 s = 4.2e+14 Hz → 420 THz
