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

Many fields in science and industry rely on the advances of nanofabrication processes. However, well-established techniques, such as electron beam lithography, might pose restrictions on dielectric materials due to surface charging effects. We propose using pulsed thermal scanning probe lithography to directly assemble high resolution patterns on insulating substrates. We applied this methodology to meet the requirements of fabricating all-dielectric metasurfaces. The pulsed thermal scanning probe lithography process, operating in standard room conditions, provided sub-10nm resolution for patterning on silica without the need of any additional conductive layers. Thus, the proposed technique improves material compatibility for nanofabrication and consequently enables the exploration of dielectric material properties across a wide range of devices.
