About Volt-metres
The volt-metre (V·m) is the SI coherent unit of electric flux, equal to 1 N·m²/C = 1 kg·m³·A⁻¹·s⁻³. By Gauss's law Φ = Q/ε₀: a surface enclosing 1 nC has total flux ≈0.113 kV·m; fair-weather atmospheric flux through a horizontal 1 m² is ≈130 V·m. 1 V·m = N·m²/C = 100 V·cm.
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.
