Conversion Formula
V·cm = kV·m × 100000
About Kilovolt-metres
The kilovolt-metre (kV·m) equals 10³ V·m. By Gauss's law a surface enclosing 1 µC has total flux Q/ε₀ ≈ 113 kV·m; flux through a 10 m² cross-section of a 100 V/m atmospheric field region is 1 kV·m; flux integrals in high-voltage substation insulator analysis are in the kV·m range. 1 kV·m = 10³ V·m.
About Volt-centimetres
The volt-centimetre (V·cm) equals 0.01 V·m, used in semiconductor device physics where field strengths in V/cm and areas in cm² are standard. Flux through a 1 cm² silicon cross-section at 1 V/cm is 1 V·cm; breakdown flux integrals in GaN and SiC power devices are quoted in V·cm and kV·cm. 1 V·cm = 0.01 V·m = 10 mV·m.
