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 Nanocoulombs per square metre

The nanocoulomb per square metre (nC/m²) equals 10⁻⁹ C/m², the scale for charge density on moderately charged electret films and LCD alignment-layer surfaces. Commercial cellular polypropylene electret microphones carry surface charge densities of 0.1-10 nC/m²; charge on liquid-crystal alignment layers affects pixel response times. 1 nC/m² = 10⁻⁹ C/m² = 10⁻³ µC/m².
