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

Optical phased array (OPA), as a promising beam steering technology, however, usually suffers from a narrow field of view (FOV) that limits its performances in applications. A miniaturized compact strategy to enlarge the beam steering angle is quite desirable for the solid-state OPA technique. Here an on-chip metasurface-doublet is proposed to offer angle magnification integrated with a port-selected optical phased array. It is implemented by combing convex and concave metalenses with the quadratic phase distribution, which is precisely integrated on the OPA chip by layer-by-layer fabrication process. Here, the OPA is fabricated in Lithium Niobate on Insulator (LNOI) platform. Our experiments show that the metasurface-doublet is able to achieve 1.54 times FOV amplification in a horizontal direction and with >41% working efficiency. Our results provide a feasible approach to achieve enlarged FOV for wide-angle beam steering and also imply a powerful platform in developing integrated multilayer metasurface devices.
