Spin-Orbit Torque in Single-Molecule Junctions from
Article in The journal of physical chemistry letters, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
The use of electric fields applied across magnetic heterojunctions that lack spatial inversion symmetry has been previously proposed as a nonmagnetic means of controlling localized magnetic moments through spin-orbit torques (SOT). The implementation of this concept at the single-molecule level has remained a challenge, however. Here, we present first-principles calculations of SOT in a single-molecule junction under bias and beyond linear response. Employing a self-consistency scheme invoking density functional theory and nonequilibrium Green's function theory including spin-orbit interaction, we compute the change of the magnetization with the bias voltage and the associated current-induced SOT. Within the linear regime our quantitative estimates for the SOT in single-molecule junctions yield values similar to those known for magnetic interfaces. Our findings contribute to an improved microscopic understanding of SOT in single molecules.
