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

The development of efficient and stable hole-transporting materials (HTMs) is critical for advancing perovskite solar cell (PSC) technology. This study presents two novel HTMs, LK-1 and LK-2, based on fused dithienoheterocycle derivatives, namely, dithieno[3,2-f:2',3'-h]quinoxaline (DTQu) and dithieno[3,2-a:2',3'-c]phenazine (DTPh), designed for PSCs. These donor-acceptor-donor (D-A-D) structured HTMs exhibit planar, rigid cores that enhance π-π stacking, improving hole mobility and stability. LK-1 and LK-2 were synthesized and characterized for their optical, electrochemical, and thermal properties. PSCs with LK-1 achieved a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 18.16%, whereas LK-2 reached 19.40%, outperforming LK-1 due to smoother film properties and reduced recombination. Both HTMs showed high thermal stability and suitable energy alignment with the perovskite layer. LK-2-based PSCs enhanced hydrophobicity and film morphology further suggest its potential for stable, efficient PSCs, advancing the development of robust organic HTMs.
