About Coulombs per cubic metre
The coulomb per cubic metre (C/m³) is the SI coherent unit of volume charge density, equal to 1 A·s·m⁻³. The depletion region of a silicon pn junction doped at ~6×10¹⁸ /m³ carries ρ ≈1 C/m³; the lightning return-stroke channel has net charge density of several C/m³; electrolytic capacitor dielectric space charge is in the C/m³ range. 1 C/m³ = 10³ mC/m³.
About Nanocoulombs per cubic metre
The nanocoulomb per cubic metre (nC/m³) equals 10⁻⁹ C/m³, the scale for thundercloud volume charge and laboratory low-pressure plasmas. The main negative charge region of a mature thunderstorm has volume charge density of 1-5 nC/m³; glow discharge plasma at ~1 Pa has space charge density in the nC/m³ to µC/m³ range. 1 nC/m³ = 10⁻⁹ C/m³ = 10⁻³ µC/m³.
