Self-driving lab for the photochemical synthesis of plasmonic nanoparticles with targeted structural and optical properties.
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 20 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
Many applications of plasmonic nanoparticles require precise control of their optical properties that are governed by nanoparticle dimensions, shape, morphology and composition. Finding reaction conditions for the synthesis of nanoparticles with targeted characteristics is a time-consuming and resource-intensive trial-and-error process, however closed-loop nanoparticle synthesis enables the accelerated exploration of large chemical spaces without human intervention. Here, we introduce the Autonomous Fluidic Identification and Optimization Nanochemistry (AFION) self-driving lab that integrates a microfluidic reactor, in-flow spectroscopic nanoparticle characterization, and machine learning for the exploration and optimization of the multidimensional chemical space for the photochemical synthesis of plasmonic nanoparticles. By targeting spectroscopic nanoparticle properties, the AFION lab identifies reaction conditions for the synthesis of different types of nanoparticles with designated shapes, morphologies, and compositions. Data analysis provides insight into the role of reaction conditions for the synthesis of the targeted nanoparticle type. This work shows that the AFION lab is an effective exploration platform for on-demand synthesis of plasmonic nanoparticles.
