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

In this study, innovative nanoscale devices are developed to investigate the charge transport in organic semiconductor nanoparticles. Using different steps of lithography techniques and dielectrophoresis, planar organic nano-junctions are fabricated from which hole mobilities are extracted in a space charge-limited current regime. Subsequently, these devices are used to investigate the impact of the composition and morphology of organic semiconductor nanoparticles on the charge mobilities. Pure donor nanoparticles and composite donor:acceptor nanoparticles with different donor compositions in their shell are inserted in the nanogap electrode to form the nano-junctions. The results highlight that the hole mobilities in the composite nanoparticles decrease by two-fold compared to pure donor nanoparticles. However, no significant change between the two kinds of composite nanoparticle morphologies is observed, indicating that conduction pathways for the holes are as efficient for donor proportion in the shell from 40% to 60%. Organic photovoltaic (OPV) devices are fabricated from water-based colloidal inks containing the two composite nanoparticles (P3HT:eh-IDTBR and P3HT:o-IDTBR) and no significant change in the performances is observed in accordance with the mobility results. Through this study, the performance of OPV devices have been succesfully correlated to the transport properties of nanoparticles having different morphology via innovative nanoscale devices.
