About Picofarads per centimetre
The picofarad per centimetre (pF/cm) equals 10⁻¹⁰ F/m = 100 pF/m, used for transmission-line capacitance per unit length in RF engineering. A standard 50 Ω air-dielectric coaxial line has capacitance per unit length ≈67 pF/m ≈0.67 pF/cm; PTFE coax gives ≈0.9 pF/cm. RF substrate characterisation often quotes pF/cm. 1 pF/cm = 10⁻¹⁰ F/m.
About Megafarads per metre
The megafarad per metre (MF/m) equals 10⁶ F/m, a theoretical permittivity scale for extreme-screening media. Drude model of a free-electron metal below the plasma frequency gives effective permittivity in the MF/m range at audio frequencies; superconducting London kinetic inductance modelled as a dielectric permittivity yields MF/m values in the GHz band. 1 MF/m = 10⁶ F/m = 10³ kF/m.
