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

Threshold-switching devices based on amorphous chalcogenides are considered for use as selector devices in 3D crossbar memories. However, the fundamental understanding of amorphous chalcogenide is hindered owing to the complexity of the local structures and difficulties in the trap analysis of multinary compounds. Furthermore, after threshold switching, the local structures gradually evolve to more stable energy states owing to the unstable homopolar bonds. Herein, based on trap analysis, DFT simulations, and operando XPS analysis, it is determined that the threshold switching mechanism is deeply related to the charged state of Se-Se homopolar defects. A threshold switching device is demonstrated with an excellent performance through the modification of the local structure via the addition of alloying elements and investigating the time-dependent trap evolution. The results concerning the trap dynamics of local atomic structures in threshold switching phenomena may be used to improve the design of amorphous chalcogenides.
