1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

CuInS2 (CIS) quantum dots (QDs) have tunable photoluminescence (PL) behaviors in the visible and near infrared spectral range with markedly lower toxicity than the cadmium-based counterparts, making them very promising applications in light emitting and solar harvesting. However, there still remain material- and fabrication- related obstacles in realizing the high-performance CIS-based QDs with well-resolved Mn(2+) d-d emission, long emission lifetimes as well as high efficiencies. Here, we demonstrate the growth of high-quality Mn(2+)-doped CuInS-ZnS (CIS-ZnS) QDs based on a multi-step hot-injection strategy. The resultant QDs exhibit a well-resolved Mn(2+) d-d emission with a high PL quantum yield (QY) up to 66% and an extremely long excited state lifetime up to ~3.78 ms, which is nearly two times longer than the longest one of "green" QDs ever reported. It is promising that the synthesized Mn(2+)-doped CIS-ZnS QDs might open new doors for their practical applications in bioimaging and opto/electronic devices.
