About Coulombs per centimetre
The coulomb per centimetre (C/cm) equals exactly 100 C/m, used in high-energy particle physics and pulsed-power engineering. Particle accelerator beam current densities along the beam axis are quoted in C/cm for high-intensity bunches; pulsed lightning-simulator spark channels carry several C/cm at peak current; field-emission cathode models describe space-charge limited current in C/cm. 1 C/cm = 100 C/m = 10⁻² 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.
