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

Organic semiconductors that deliver emission with a wavelength exceeding 900 nm can enable a wide range of applications, but the unfortunate fact is that only a small number of such emitters have been synthesized and have demonstrated emissive function in devices. Here, this issue is addressed through the design and synthesis of two terpolymers that comprise a low energy-gap thiophene-thiadiazolobenzotriazole (TBTzTD) donor-acceptor unit as the minority guest incorporated in a majority donor-acceptor conjugated copolymer host, being either thiophene-quinoxaline (TQ) or thiophene-difluoroquinoxaline (TQ2F). These terpolymers are further endowed with high solubility in benign hydrophilic solvents through the grafting of branched oligo-(ethylene glycol) side chains onto the quinoxaline unit. The application function of the terpolymer emitters is demonstrated through their implementation in light-emitting electrochemical cells (LECs). It is notable from a sustainability perspective that the emitter is metal free and that the single-layer LEC active material is cast from an environmentally benign water:ethanol solvent blend. From an application perspective, it is attractive that the terpolymer-LEC devices feature a very fast turn-on to significant radiance at low voltage and that they deliver emission with a peak wavelength of 935 nm with TQ-TBTzTD as the emitter and 950 nm with TQ2F-TBTzTD as the emitter.
