Zinc Carboxylate Surface Passivation for Enhanced Optical Properties of In(Zn)P Colloidal Quantum Dots.
Article in Micromachines, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
Indium phosphide (InP) colloidal quantum dots (CQDs) have generated great interest as next-generation light-emitting materials owing to their narrow emission spectra and environment-friendly components. The minimized surface defects is essential to achieve narrow full-width at half-maximum (FWHM) and high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY). However, InP CQDs are readily oxidized in ambient condition, which results in formation of oxidation defect states on the surface of InP CQDs. Herein, we introduce a strategy to successfully passivate the surface defects of InP core by zinc complexes. The zinc carboxylates passivation reduces FWHM of InP CQDs from 130 nm to 70 nm and increases PLQY from 1% to 14% without shelling. Furthermore, the photoluminescence (PL) peak has shifted from 670 nm to 510 nm with an increase of zinc carboxylates passivation, which suggests that excessive zinc carboxylates functions as a size-regulating reagent in the synthesis.
