Yes DC10 a coulomb represents a charge of approximately 6.241 506 x (10 to the 18th power) e or or 6.24 quintillion.
Ok guys, I found this with regard to oscillation:
"Theory of Coulomb-blockade oscillations in the conductance of a quantum dot
C. W. J. Beenakker
Philips Research Laboratories, 5600 JA Eindhoven, The Netherlands
Received 28 November 1990
A linear-response theory is developed for resonant tunneling through a quantum dot of small capacitance, in the regime of thermally broadened resonances. The theory extends the classical theory of Coulomb-blockade oscillations by Kulik and Shekhter to the resonant-tunneling regime. Both the cases of negligible and strong inelastic scattering in the quantum dot are considered. Effects from the non-Fermi-Dirac distribution of electrons among the energy levels (occurring when kT is comparable to the level separation) are fully included. Explicit analytic results are obtained for the periodicity, amplitude, line shape, and activation energy of the conductance oscillations.

There, take that!!
But, is this stuff inportant for us to know? Is it simply to exercise or brains? Then a guy with two middle names, C. W. J. Beenakker.
Are we havin' fun yet?
