About Microamperes per square centimetre
The microampere per square centimetre (µA/cm²) equals 10⁻⁶ A / 10⁻⁴ m² = 0.01 A/m². Active corrosion current density of mild steel in aerated salt water is 10-100 µA/cm²; exchange current density of Cd/Cd2+ is ≈15 µA/cm²; leakage current density of forward-biased silicon diodes at very low bias is in the µA/cm² range. 1 µA/cm² = 0.01 A/m² = 10 mA/m².
About Megaamperes per square metre
The megaampere per square metre (MA/m²) equals 10⁶ A/m², encountered in lightning channel physics and pulsed-power fusion devices. Peak current density in a lightning return-stroke channel is 10-100 MA/m²; plasma current sheets in z-pinch implosions reach 1-100 MA/m²; liquid-metal MHD pumps in fast reactors operate at 0.5-5 MA/m². 1 MA/m² = 10⁶ A/m² = 10³ kA/m².
