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

Wide bandgap (WBG) perovskites hold tremendous potential for enabling efficient perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells. However, interfacial energy losses at the perovskite/electron selective contact interface remain a substantial obstacle in approaching its theoretical efficiency limit. Herein, for the first time, a multifunctional cage-like diammonium chloride molecule, featuring Lewis acid/base groups and strong molecular polarity, is designed to reduce film defects and modulate the interfacial dipole, thereby suppressing non-radiative recombination and optimizing surface band alignment. More importantly, the unique cage-like cation can induce the formation of a phase-pure quasi-2D perovskite with spontaneous in-plane orientation and exhibits a pronounced ferroelectric effect, facilitating carrier further apart and extraction by upshifting the surface work function. Consequently, we achieve 1.68 eV perovskite solar cells with power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of 22.6% (0.1 cm
