About Gigacoulombs per metre
The gigacoulomb per metre (GC/m) equals 10⁹ C/m, a value with no engineering realisation but used in astrophysical and cosmological electromagnetic models. Magnetar magnetic fields, pulsar magnetosphere current sheet charge densities, and theoretical cosmic string electromagnetic scenarios are described at GC/m scales in research literature. 1 GC/m = 10⁹ C/m = 10³ MC/m.
About Nanocoulombs per metre
The nanocoulomb per metre (nC/m) equals 10⁻⁹ C/m, the scale for DNA backbone charge density and strongly gated carbon nanotube charge. B-form DNA carries approximately -2 elementary charges per 0.34 nm base pair spacing, giving an intrinsic linear charge density of about -0.94 nC/m; strongly biased nanotube transistors reach several nC/m. 1 nC/m = 10⁻⁹ C/m = 10⁻³ µC/m.
