Conversion Formula
krad = fGy × 1.000000000e-16
About Femtograys
The femtogray (fGy) equals 10⁻¹⁵ Gy, used in radiation biology to characterise the dose deposited by a single low-energy Auger electron cascade or a single traversal of a low-LET particle through a cell nucleus. Monte Carlo microdosimetry simulations of targeted radionuclide therapy report subcellular doses at the fGy level. 1 fGy = 10⁻¹⁵ Gy = 10⁻³ pGy.
About Kilorads
The kilorad (krad) equals 10 Gy. Used in radiation hardness testing of electronics for space and military applications: commercial components typically withstand 0.1-10 krad(Si); military-grade components are specified to 100-1000 krad(Si). Semiconductor device qualification standards (MIL-STD-883, ESCC 22900) quote total ionising dose in krad. 1 krad = 10 Gy.
