Coulomb/cubic meter

C/m³

Definition

The SI unit of volume charge density, representing one coulomb of charge per cubic meter of volume. It is fundamental in electrostatics for describing charge distribution in three-dimensional space.

History/Origin

Derived from the SI units for charge (coulomb) and volume (cubic meter). Its use became standardized with the development of electromagnetism theory in the 19th century.

Current Use

Widely used in physics and electrical engineering for analyzing electric fields in three-dimensional charge distributions, plasma physics, and semiconductor physics. Essential for design and analysis.
