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

Monolayers of transition-metal dichalcogenides with direct band gap located at the binary [Formula: see text] points of the Brillouin zone are promising materials for applications in opto- and spin-electronics due to strongly enhanced Coulomb interactions and specific spin-valley properties. They furthermore represent a unique platform to study electron-electron and electron-phonon interactions in diverse exciton complexes. Here, we demonstrate processes in which the neutral biexciton and two negative trions, namely the spin-triplet and spin-singlet trions, upconvert light into a bright intravalley exciton in an hBN-encapsulated WS[Formula: see text] monolayer. We propose that the energy gains required in the polarized upconversion photoluminescence originate from different interactions including resonant optical phonons, a cooling of resident electrons and a non-local and an anisotropic electron-hole exchange, respectively. The temperature dependence (7-120 K) of the excitonic upconversion intensity obtained at excitation energies corresponding to the biexciton and trions provides insight into an increasing phonon population as well as a thermally enhanced electron scattering. Our study sheds new light on the understanding of excitonic spin and valley properties of van der Waals heterostructures and improves the understanding of photonic upconversion mechanisms in two-dimensional quantum materials.
