What Does AV Stand For?
AV stands for Attovolt
Attovolt (AV) is a unit of measurement for electric potential difference, equivalent to one quintillionth (10^-18) of a volt. It is used primarily in scientific and technical contexts, particularly in fields such as atomic and molecular physics, where extremely low voltage levels are necessary for precision measurements and applications. The attovolt allows for the quantification and comparison of minute electrical charges and potentials in advanced research and technology.
