Harnessing local inhomogeneity for enhanced dielectric energy storage.
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 4 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
Inorganic dielectric capacitors are highly demanded in pulsed systems due to their high-power output, but the low energy density limits device miniaturization. Relaxor ferroelectrics with local inhomogeneity are leading candidates for energy storage because of small hysteresis and relatively high polarization. However, the mechanism of local inhomogeneity in high-performance relaxor ferroelectrics is still not well understood due to limitations in characterization techniques and insufficient interpretation of computations. We reveal the microstructural origin of enhanced energy storage performance based on polar nanoregion and polar slush models. While smaller domains improve energy storage, more crucial factors are electrostatic interactions between polar and non-polar regions and intense disordered random fields, caused by local inhomogeneity. Combining merits of both models, we develop a framework directly relating local inhomogeneity to dielectric properties that successfully simulates solid solutions and high-entropy dielectrics. Our results can offer insights into energy storage performance in complex relaxor ferroelectrics.
