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

This article, a part of the larger research project of Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS), describes an advanced study focusing on the shapes and materials of Tip-Enhanced Raman Scattering (TERS) designated to serve as part of a novel imager device. The initial aim was to define the optimal shape of the "probe": tip or cavity, round or sharp. The investigations focused on the effect of shape (hemi-sphere, hemispheroid, ellipsoidal cavity, ellipsoidal rod, nano-cone), and the effect of material (Ag, Au, Al) on enhancement, as well as the effect of excitation wavelengths on the electric field. Complementary results were collected: numerical simulations consolidated with analytical models, based on solid assumptions. Preliminary experimental results of fabrication and structural characterization are also presented. Thorough analyses were performed around critical parameters, such as the plasmonic metal-Silver, Aluminium or Gold-using Rakic model, the tip geometry-sphere, spheroid, ellipsoid, nano-cone, nano-shell, rod, cavity-and the geometry of the plasmonic array: cross-talk in multiple nanostructures. These combined outcomes result in an optimized TERS design for a large number of applications.
