About Abcoulombs per centimetre

The abcoulomb per centimetre (abC/cm) is the linear charge density unit of the CGS-EMU system, equal to 1 abC / 1 cm = 10 C / 0.01 m = 1 000 C/m, exactly equal to 1 kC/m in SI. It appears in nineteenth-century electromagnetic engineering texts on telegraphy cables and in EMU derivations of inductance and capacitance per unit length. 1 abC/cm = 1 000 C/m = 1 kC/m.

About Attocoulombs per metre

The attocoulomb per metre (aC/m) equals 10⁻¹⁸ C/m, the scale for linear charge density in quantum-confined nanostructures. Induced charge along a quantum dot nanowire segment under a modest gate voltage is in the aC/m to fC/m range; charge delocalised along conjugated organic molecules is estimated in aC/m; electron-beam lithography exposure doses on sub-10 nm features translate to aC/m line dosages. 1 aC/m = 10⁻¹⁸ C/m = 10⁻³ fC/m.
