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

Nanophotonic circuitry requires an ability to externally control and analyze optical signals tightly confined in subwavelength volumes. Various schemes of surface plasmon (SP) routing have been presented using active and passive metasurfaces. One of the most appealing approaches is the use of plasmonic spin-orbit interaction where the incident light spin state is efficiently coupled to an orbital degree of freedom of the surface wave. Recently, a major attention has been drawn to an additional plasmonic degree of freedom - the transverse spin and some application for near-field plasmonic manipulations have been presented. Here we propose a spin-locking metasurface incorporating a transverse spin of the SP wave to selectively route the near-field beams. Owing to the combination of the oblique incidence of circularly polarized light with the accurately designed momentum matching of the grating we achieve a precise directional control over the plasmonic distributions. The experimental verification of the directional launching is performed by a time-resolved leakage radiation measurements allowing one to visualize the shape and the dynamics of the excited beam.
