About Millicoulombs per square centimetre

The millicoulomb per square centimetre (mC/cm²) equals exactly 10 C/m², used in electrochemical plating and electrophoretic deposition. Electrodeposition of copper at 10 C/m² deposits a monolayer-scale film; faradaic charge density in electrochemical supercapacitors is 1-100 mC/cm²; silver electroplating baths run at 2-10 mC/cm² for thin coatings. 1 mC/cm² = 10 C/m².

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.
