About Abcoulombs per square centimetre
The abcoulomb per square centimetre (abC/cm²) is the surface charge density unit of the CGS-EMU system, equal to 1 abC / 1 cm² = 10 C / 10⁻⁴ m² = 10⁵ C/m². It appears in nineteenth-century electromagnetic engineering texts on telegraph cable and dynamo analysis; the abC/cm² is the natural surface density unit when using abamperes and centimetres. 1 abC/cm² = 10⁵ C/m² = 100 kC/m².
About Attocoulombs per square metre
The attocoulomb per square metre (aC/m²) equals 10⁻¹⁸ C/m², the scale for areal charge density on individual molecular monolayers measured by Kelvin probe force microscopy. A single elementary charge on a 1 µm² area gives about 0.16 aC/m²; contact potential distributions in organic photovoltaic blends correspond to aC/m²-scale surface charge. 1 aC/m² = 10⁻¹⁸ C/m² = 10⁻³ fC/m².
