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

Developing high-efficiency perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells (PSTs) using scalable deposition methods is crucial for the industrialization of next-generation photovoltaics. However, developing industrially viable deposition techniques to ensure high performance, uniformity, and compatibility with existing silicon manufacturing remains a key challenge. A scalable hybrid two-step deposition process, combining evaporation and inkjet printing, is presented for fabrication of high-performance PSTs. Wide bandgap perovskite solar cells are achieved with power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of up to 19.8%. Applying this approach to textured silicon bottom cells, the process ensures conformal perovskite growth, critical for industry-relevant tandem integration. Using this technique, highly efficient, fully textured PSTs with a PCE of 27.4% are fabricated. Homogeneous perovskite thin films are formed up to the substrate's very edge, enabling industry standards for silicon edge isolation. These results highlight the potential of hybrid two-step inkjet printing for scalable, high-efficiency PST fabrication, paving the way for industrial adoption.
