About Megavolts per metre
The megavolt per metre (MV/m) equals 10⁶ V/m, the scale for accelerating gradients in particle accelerators, internal fields in semiconductor devices, and piezoelectric actuator operation. RF linear accelerator cavities achieve 20-100 MV/m; CMOS gate-oxide fields at 1.8 V across 2 nm SiO₂ are about 900 MV/m; piezoelectric stack actuators operate at 1-3 MV/m. 1 MV/m = 10⁶ V/m.
About Volts per centimetre
The volt per centimetre (V/cm) equals exactly 100 V/m, the practical unit for electrophoresis fields, thin-film electrical measurements, and solid dielectric breakdown specifications. Standard agarose gel electrophoresis runs at 5-15 V/cm; SiO₂ gate-oxide breakdown field is about 10 MV/cm = 10⁹ V/m; electro-osmotic flow in microfluidics is driven at 10-100 V/cm. 1 V/cm = 100 V/m.
