About Farads
The farad (F) is the SI derived unit of electrical capacitance, equal to 1 coulomb per volt (1 C/V = 1 A²·s⁴·kg⁻¹·m⁻²), named after Michael Faraday (1791-1867). One farad is impractically large for classical components: electric double-layer supercapacitors (EDLC) are the only practical devices in the farad range, from 1 F coin cells to 3 000 F modules used in regenerative braking. 1 F = 10³ mF = 10⁶ µF.
About Statfarads
The statfarad (statF) is the capacitance unit of the CGS-Gaussian system, equal to exactly 10⁵/c² F where c = 299 792 458 m/s, giving ≈ 1.1127 × 10⁻¹² F. A sphere of 1 cm radius in vacuum has capacitance exactly 1 statF in Gaussian units; Gaussian-system electrostatics texts and plasma-physics codes express capacitances in statfarads. 1 statF = 10⁵/c² F ≈ 1.113 pF.
