Hole-doping-assisted epitaxial growth of wafer-scale rhombohedral-stacked bilayer transition-metal dichalcogenides single crystals.
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 3 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
Bilayer rhombohedral-stacked transition-metal dichalcogenides (3R-TMDCs) combining high carrier mobility, good electrostatic control, and exotic switchable polarization are emerging as promising semiconducting channels for beyond-silicon electronics. However, despite great efforts, the growth of wafer-scale bilayer 3R-TMDCs single crystals remains difficult due to challenges in the synergistic control of phase structure and grain orientation. Here we design a hole-doping-assisted strategy to synthesize a series of two-inch bilayer 3R-TMDCs single crystals on c-plane sapphire. The introduction of hole dopants (e.g. Hf, V, Nb, Ta) not only increases the interlayer coupling to break the formation energy degeneracy of bilayer 3R-stacked and hexagonal-stacked TMDCs, but also promotes the parallel steps formation on sapphire surfaces to induce the unidirectionally aligned bilayer grain nucleation.
