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

Functional oxides are important materials for multiple applications in flexible and transparent electronics. Electrically contacting these oxides to form active channels is often challenging as they suffer significant alteration or instabilities when interfaced with metal electrodes. Here, we demonstrate a new scheme to electrically contact thin films of semiconducting zinc tin oxide (ZnSnO) that employs pre-patterned copper electrodes encapsulated by chemical-vapour-deposited graphene. Measurement of over more than 100 channels with varying geometry and nature of contact shows that the bulk resistivity of the ZnSnO channels with graphene/Cu composite is at least two orders of magnitude larger than the same films deposited directly on aluminium (Al) contacts. Moreover, the ZnSnO channels with Cu/graphene contacts showed nearly ohmic transport, in contrast to space-charge-limited conduction observed for other contacting schemes. Our results outline a new application of graphene in a step towards the development of alternative contacting strategies for oxide electronics.
