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 the vicinity of plasmonic nanostructures that support highly confined light fields, spontaneous emission processes, such as two-photon spontaneous emission (TPSE), exhibit higher-order multipolar emission pathways beyond the dipolar one. These multipolar emission channels occur simultaneously and can interfere with each other. We develop a novel framework that computes these interference effects for TPSE of a quantum emitter close to an arbitrary nanostructure. The model is based on the computation of Purcell factors that can be calculated with conventional electromagnetic simulations, which avoids complex analytic calculations for the environment. For a transition of a hydrogen-like emitter close to a graphene nanotriangle, we demonstrate a breakdown of the dipolar selection rule in the TPSE process. This breakdown is due to a huge enhancement of the two-electric dipole (2ED) and of the two-electric quadrupole (2EQ) transitions. We observe an important interference between these multipolar transitions, as it increases the total rate by
