Conversion Formula

S/m = GS/m × 1000000000

About Gigasiemens per metre

The gigasiemens per metre (GS/m) equals 10⁹ S/m, relevant for cryogenically cooled pure metals. Pure aluminium at 4 K reaches ≈10 GS/m; pure copper near 4 K approaches ≈60 GS/m. RF cryogenic resonator design and superconductor proximity-effect modelling use GS/m to benchmark normal-metal residual losses. 1 GS/m = 10⁹ S/m = 10³ MS/m.

About Siemens per metre

The siemens per metre (S/m) is the SI unit of electrical conductivity, equal to 1 A/(V·m) = 1 Ω⁻¹·m⁻¹ = 1 kg⁻¹·m⁻³·A²·s³. Seawater ≈5 S/m, human blood ≈0.7 S/m, graphite ≈10⁴ S/m, copper 59.6 MS/m; the full range from insulators (10⁻¹⁷ S/m) to superconductors (∞) is expressed in S/m. 1 S/m = 0.01 S/cm.
