Breaking the angular dispersion limit in thin film optics by ultra-strong light-matter coupling.
Article in Nature communications, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Thin film interference is integral to modern photonics, e.g., allowing for precise design of high performance optical filters, photovoltaics and light-emitting devices. However, interference inevitably leads to a generally undesired change of spectral characteristics with angle. Here, we introduce a strategy to overcome this fundamental limit in optics by utilizing and tuning the exciton-polariton modes arising in ultra-strongly coupled microcavities. We demonstrate optical filters with narrow pass bands that shift by less than their half width (< 15 nm) even at extreme angles. By expanding this strategy to strong coupling with the photonic sidebands of dielectric multilayer stacks, we also obtain filters with high extinction ratios and up to 98% peak transmission. Finally, we apply this approach in flexible filters, organic photodiodes, and polarization-sensitive filtering. These results illustrate how strong coupling provides additional degrees of freedom in thin film optics that will enable exciting new applications in micro-optics, sensing, and biophotonics.
