Polymer semiconductor blends with remarkably stable semiconducting performance under large and cyclic mechanical deformation.
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 2 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
In this paper, we report deformable blend thin films of polymer semiconductors with PDPPTT (p-type) and N2200 (n-type) as the examples by using the hydrogenated polyisoprene (H-PIP) as the newly developed elastomer. As compared to the respective blends with other elastomers, the blends with H-PIP bear lower elastic moduli and higher crack on-set strains, and in particular exhibit remarkably stable semiconducting performance under large and cyclic mechanical deformations. This aligns with the observation that the assembly structures of polymer semiconductors are stable within the H-PIP matrix based on AFM and GIWAXS characterizations. This exceptional performance is attributed to the unique structure of H-PIP, which is solely composed of mobile aliphatic-hydrocarbon chains without chemical/physical crosslinks. This enables the blend thin films with H-PIP to follow the mechanical deformations of the substrate without generating internal stress and affecting the interconnected assembly networks of the polymer semiconductor, thus leading to stable semiconducting performance.
