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.
About Gigavolt-metres
The gigavolt-metre (GV·m) equals 10⁹ V·m, the extreme scale for pulsed-power and plasma physics. Electric flux through a large-aperture (1 m²) laser-plasma target at GV/m field strengths is in the GV·m range; total closed-surface flux of a multi-coulomb charge distribution is in the GV·m scale. 1 GV·m = 10⁹ V·m = 10³ MV·m.
