Anomalous photovoltaics in Janus MoSSe monolayers.
Article in Nature communications, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
The anomalous photovoltaic effect (APE) in polar crystals is a promising avenue for overcoming the energy conversion efficiency limits of conventional photoelectric devices utilizing p-n junction architectures. To facilitate effective photocarrier separation and enhance the APE, polar materials need to be thinned down to maximize the depolarization field. Here, we demonstrate Janus MoSSe monolayers (~0.67 nm thick) with strong spontaneous photocurrent generation. A photoresponsivity up to 3 mA/W, with ~ 1% external quantum efficiency and ultrafast photoresponse (~50 ps) were observed in the MoSSe device. Moreover, unlike conventional 2D materials that require careful twist alignment, the photovoltage can be further scaled up by simply stacking the MoSSe layers without the need for specific control on interlayer twist angles. Our work paves the way for the development of high-performance, flexible, and compact photovoltaics and optoelectronics with atomically engineered Janus polar materials.
