Mass-Information (MI) Macro-Tunnelling: The Photoelectric Effect as Experimental Proof
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: Conventional definition of quantum tunnelling as electron transmission across a potentialbarrier V0 is incomplete. We define true tunnelling as transition from mass to information viaMI (Mass-Information) slit. MI slit is defined as n = 0.5 state, half mass half information,where mass roop (form) is annihilated and information roop (form) is generated (n = 0 →0.5 → 1). We introduce conservation law nmass + ninf o = 1, therefore direct 0 → 1 isforbidden and must go via 0.5. Therefore tunnelling is not transport of particle but transportof information.The photoelectric effect, first discovered by Hertz in 1887 and awarded the Nobel Prizeto Einstein in 1921, is reinterpreted as the first MI slit experiment and provides experimentalproof: photon (information, n = 1) → metal surface (MI slit, n = 0.5) → electron (mass,n = 0). The inverse process, electron to information via MI slit, constitutes true Mass-Information Macro-Tunnelling. In ZDMI (Zero-Dimensional Mass-Information) geometry,MI slit at n = 0.5 is zero-dimensional point where 3D mass geometry collapses to 0D,enabling roop conversion. Applications of this principle in chemistry are discussed.
