About Statvolts per centimetre

The statvolt per centimetre (statV/cm) is the electric field unit of the CGS-Gaussian system, equal to c / 10⁴ V/m where c = 299 792 458 m/s, giving exactly 29 979.2458 V/m. It is the natural field unit for Gaussian-CGS electrostatics; the field at 1 cm from a 1-statcoulomb point charge in vacuum is exactly 1 statV/cm; Gaussian-system formulas for Coulomb's law and dielectric polarisation use statV/cm without a 4πε₀ factor. 1 statV/cm ≈ 29.979 kV/m.

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.
