AFM-IR of Electrohydrodynamically Printed PbS Quantum Dots: Quantifying Ligand Exchange at the Nanoscale.
Article in Nano letters, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Colloidal quantum dots (cQDs), semiconductor materials with widely tunable properties, can be printed in submicrometer patterns through electrohydrodynamic printing, avoiding aggressive photolithography steps. Postprinting ligand exchange determines the final optoelectronic properties of the cQD structures. However, achieving a complete bulk exchange is challenging, and the conventional vibrational analysis lacks the required spatial resolution. Infrared nanospectroscopy enables quantitative analysis of vibrational signals and structural topography on the nanometer scale upon ligand substitution on lead sulfide cQDs. A solution of ethanedithiol led to rapid (∼60 s) exchange of ≤90% of the ligands, in structures up to ∼750 nm thick. Prolonged exposures (>1 h) caused the degradation of the microstructures, with a systematic removal of cQDs regulated by surface:bulk ratios and solvent interactions. This study establishes a method for the development of devices through a combination of tunable photoactive materials, additive manufacturing of microstructures, and their quantitative nanometer-scale analysis.
