Deterministic Storage of Quantum Information in the Genetic Code

Roberto Rivelino

DNA has been proposed as a chemical platform for computing and data storage, paving the way for building DNA-based computers. Recently, DNA has been hypothesized as an ideal quantu…

A quantum number theory

Lucas Daiha, Roberto Rivelino

We employ an algebraic procedure based on quantum mechanics to propose a `quantum number theory' (QNT) as a possible extension of the `classical number theory'. We built our QNT by…

Modeling the Field Emission Enhancement Factor for Capped Carbon Nanotubes using the Induced Electron Density

Caio P. de Castro, Thiago A. de Assis, Roberto Rivelino +3

In many field electron emission experiments on single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs), the SWCNT stands on one of two well-separated parallel plane plates, with a macroscopic fiel…

On the quantum mechanics of how an ideal carbon nanotube field emitter can exhibit a constant field enhancement factor

Caio P. de Castro, Thiago A. de Assis, Roberto Rivelino +3

Measurements of current-voltage characteristics from ideal carbon nanotube (CNT) field electron emitters of small apex radius have shown that these emitters can exhibit a linear Fo…

Restoring observed classical behavior of the carbon nanotube field emission enhancement factor from the electronic structure

Caio P. de Castro, Thiago A. de Assis, Roberto Rivelino +3

Experimental Fowler-Nordheim plots taken from orthodoxly behaving carbon nanotube (CNT) field electron emitters are known to be linear. This shows that, for such emitters, there ex…

Massless Dirac-like fermions under external fields: a nonminimal coupling approach

E. Marcelino, E. S. Santos, R. Rivelino

We investigate the unusual properties of quasirelativistic massless fermions under a magnetic or electric field by means of nonminimal couplings. Within this approach, the spin-orb…
