About Gigacoulombs per square metre
The gigacoulomb per square metre (GC/m²) equals 10⁹ C/m², a value with no engineering realisation, used only in astrophysical and theoretical plasma models. Magnetar magnetosphere charge sheet densities, pulsar polar cap surface charge, and theoretical cosmic string surface charge are described at GC/m² scales in research literature. 1 GC/m² = 10⁹ C/m² = 10³ MC/m².
About Coulombs per square centimetre
The coulomb per square centimetre (C/cm²) equals exactly 10⁴ C/m², used in electrochemistry for Faradaic charge densities in electrolytic cells and battery electrode characterisation. The theoretical charge density for lithiation of a graphene anode monolayer is ≈ 0.38 C/cm²; proton exchange membrane fuel cell charge densities are 0.1-1 C/cm²; pulsed-laser ablation craters carry µC to mC per cm². 1 C/cm² = 10⁴ C/m².
