About Microfarads per metre

The microfarad per metre (µF/m) equals 10⁻⁶ F/m, the scale for very high-permittivity ferroelectric ceramics and conducting electrodes. Relaxor ferroelectrics near their diffuse phase transition (e.g. PMN-PT) reach εᵣ ~ 10⁶ at low frequencies, giving ε ≈ 8.85 µF/m; effective medium permittivity of heavily loaded carbon-black polymer composites near percolation threshold approaches µF/m. 1 µF/m = 10⁻⁶ F/m.

About Nanofarads per centimetre

The nanofarad per centimetre (nF/cm) equals 10⁻⁷ F/m, used in power cable and high-voltage capacitor characterisation. High-voltage XLPE power cables (230 kV) have capacitance per unit length of 0.1-0.2 nF/cm; oil-impregnated paper capacitors used in power factor correction banks are characterised in nF/cm. 1 nF/cm = 10⁻⁷ F/m = 10³ pF/cm.
