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

Probing the time evolution of the terahertz electric field within subwavelength dimensions plays a crucial role in observing the nanoscale lightwave interactions with fundamental excitations in condensed-matter systems and in artificial structures, such as metamaterials. Here, we propose a novel probing method for measuring terahertz electric potentials across nanogaps using a combination of optical and terahertz pulse excitations. To achieve this, we employ ring-shaped nanogaps that enclose a metallic island, allowing us to capture tunneling charges when subjected to terahertz electromagnetic pulse illumination. By controlling and manipulating the terahertz tunneling charges through a focused optical gate pulse, we can obtain the terahertz potential strength as a function of spatial coordinates and time delays between pulses. To accurately quantify the time evolution of terahertz electric potential across quantum barriers, we carefully calibrate the recorded nonlinear tunneling current. Its on-resonance and off-resonance behaviors are also discussed, providing valuable insights into the antenna's characteristics and performance.
