Convert Picofarads per centimetre to Microfarads per metre
Convert Picofarads per centimetre (pF/cm) to Microfarads per metre (µF/m) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
µF/m = pF/cm × 1.000000000e-4
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 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.
