Wide-angular-range and high-resolution beam steering by a metasurface-coupled phased array.
Article in Optics letters, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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.
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
Optical beam steering has broad applications in lidar, optical communications, optical interconnects, and spatially resolved optical sensors. For high-speed applications, phased-array-based beam-steering methods are favored over mechanical methods, as they are unconstrained by inertia and can inherently operate at a higher speed. However, phased-array systems exhibit a tradeoff between angular range and beam divergence, making it difficult to achieve both a large steering angle and a narrow beam divergence. Here, we present a beam-steering method based on wavefront shaping through a disorder-engineered metasurface that circumvents this range-resolution tradeoff. We experimentally demonstrate that, through this technique, one can continuously steer an optical beam within a range of 160° (80° from normal incidence) with an angular resolution of about 0.01° at the cost of beam throughput.
