About Abfarads per centimetre
The abfarad per centimetre (abF/cm) is the permittivity unit of the CGS-EMU system, equal to 10⁹ F / 0.01 m = 10¹¹ F/m. The abfarad (= 10⁹ F exactly) was the CGS-EMU base capacitance unit; in EMU notation electromagnetic wave propagation uses abF/cm. 1 abF/cm = 10¹¹ F/m = 10⁹ GF/m.
About Gigafarads per metre
The gigafarad per metre (GF/m) equals 10⁹ F/m. Effective permittivity of a dense metallic plasma (electron density ~10²⁶ m⁻³) at frequencies well below the plasma frequency can reach GF/m; abfarad-scale geometric capacitances in nanoelectronics expressed per unit electrode length approach GF/m. 1 GF/m = 10⁹ F/m = 10³ MF/m.
