About Gigacoulombs per cubic metre
The gigacoulomb per cubic metre (GC/m³) equals 10⁹ C/m³, the natural scale for free-electron charge density in metals. Copper has ~8.5×10²⁸ free electrons/m³, giving total free-charge density ≈13.6 GC/m³; gold is ≈9.4 GC/m³; this scale is also used in extreme fusion plasma models at densities above 10²⁸ /m³. 1 GC/m³ = 10⁹ C/m³ = 10³ MC/m³.
About Coulombs per cubic inch
The coulomb per cubic inch (C/in³) equals exactly 1/(0.0254)³ C/m³ ≈61 023.7 C/m³, used in US semiconductor and battery engineering. Volumetric charge capacity of lithium-ion battery electrodes is quoted in C/in³ in North American product datasheets; solid-state electrolyte charge density specifications in US engineering standards appear in C/in³. 1 C/in³ ≈61 024 C/m³ = 61.024 kC/m³.
