Precise and Omnidirectional Opto-Thermo-Elastic Actuation in Van Der Waals Contacting Systems.
Article in Advanced science (Weinheim, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany), 2024. 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
Actuation of micro-objects along unconstrained trajectories in van der Waals contacting systems-in the same capacity as optical tweezers to manipulate particles in fluidic environments-remains a formidable challenge due to the lack of effective methods to overcome and exploit surface friction. Herein, a technique that aims to resolve this difficulty is proposed. This study shows that, by utilizing a moderate power beam of light, micro-objects adhered on planar solid substrates can be precisely guided to move in arbitrary directions, realizing sub-nanometer resolution across extended surfaces. The underlying mechanism is the interplay between surface friction and pulsed opto-thermo-elastic deformations, and to render a biased motion with off-centroid light illumination. This technique enables high-precision assembly, separation control of nanogaps, regulation of rotation angles in various material-substrate systems, whose capability is further tested in reconfigurable construction of optoelectronic devices. With simple set-up and theoretical generality, opto-thermo-elastic actuation opens up an avenue for versatile optical manipulation in the solid domain.
