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

Multi-frequency multi-bit programmable amplitude modulation (AM) of spoof surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) is realized at millimeter wave frequencies with interdigital split-ring resonators (SRRs) and In-Ga-Zn-O (IGZO) Schottky diodes. Periodic SRRs on a metal line guide both SRR mode and spoof SPP mode, the former of which rejects the spoof SPP propagation at the SRR resonant frequencies. To actively modulate the amplitude of spoof SPPs, IGZO Schottky diodes are fabricated in the SRR gaps, which continuously re-configure SRRs to metallic loops by applying bias. Interdigital gaps are designed in SRRs to increase the capacitance, thus red shifting the resonant frequencies, which significantly broadens the operation bandwidth of multi-frequency AM. Thus, cascading different kinds of interdigital SRRs with Schottky diodes enables multi-frequency multi-bit AM programmable. As a demonstration, a dual-frequency device was fabricated and characterized, which achieved significant multi-bit AM from -12.5 to -6.2 dB at 34.7 GHz and from -26 to -8.5 dB at 50 GHz independently and showed programmable capability.
