Coulomb per Square Meter
C/m²
Definition
The SI base unit of surface charge density, representing one coulomb of electric charge distributed over one square meter of surface area. This unit is fundamental in electromagnetism and electrical engineering applications.
History/Origin
Named after Charles-Augustin de Coulomb, the French physicist who formulated Coulomb's law. The coulomb was established as the SI unit of electric charge in 1948, and surface charge density measurements became standardized.
Current Use
Widely used in electrical engineering, physics, and materials science for analyzing charge distribution on surfaces, calculating electric fields, and designing electrical systems and components.
