About Picocoulombs per metre
The picocoulomb per metre (pC/m) equals 10⁻¹² C/m, the scale for charge induced on carbon nanotubes by gate electrodes and for lightly charged polymer chains. A metallic single-wall carbon nanotube at a gate bias of a few volts carries about 10-100 pC/m; weakly charged polyelectrolytes in high-salt solution have effective linear charge densities of 1-100 pC/m after ion condensation. 1 pC/m = 10⁻¹² C/m = 10⁻³ nC/m.
About Coulombs per foot
The coulomb per foot (C/ft) equals exactly 1/0.3048 C/m ≈ 3.2808 C/m, used in North American electrical engineering for charge per unit length on power cables and conductor specifications. High-voltage DC cable charge density ratings are sometimes quoted in C/ft in ANSI/NEMA specifications; lightning protection standards may express charge density per foot of conductor. 1 C/ft = 1/0.3048 C/m ≈ 3.2808 C/m.
