Ground-state charge transfer in single-molecule junctions covalent organic frameworks for boosting photocatalytic hydrogen evolution.
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 12 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
Ground-state charge transfer plays a vital role in improving the photocatalytic performance of D-A type covalent organic frameworks. However, limited studies have explored the modulation of photocatalytic performance in COFs-based photocatalysts through ground-state charge transfer. Here we show the formation of extremely intense ground-state charge transfer via a unique covalent bonding approach. We transform three-dimensional stacked COF-based S-scheme heterojunctions (FOOCOF-PDIU) into co-planar single-molecule junctions (FOOCOF-PDI). This co-planar single-molecule junction structure exhibits strong ground-state charge transfer compared to the traditional randomly stacked heterojunctions and individual COFs. Ground-state charge transfer induces charge redistribution and dipole moment formation, which enhances the built-in electric field intensity in single-molecule junctions. This enhanced built-in electric field promotes exciton dissociation and charge separation, resulting in improved photocatalytic efficiency. Therefore, a stable molecule-decorated COF with broad light absorption has been successfully obtained, whose hydrogen evolution rate can reach 265 mmol g
