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

Nonlinear frequency conversion offers powerful capabilities for applications in telecommunications, signal processing, and computing. Thin-film lithium niobate (TFLN) has emerged as a promising integrated photonics platform due to its strong electro-optic effect and second-order nonlinearity, which can be exploited through periodic poling. However, conventional poling techniques in x-cut TFLN are constrained to minimum period sizes on the order of microns, restricting access to highly phase-mismatched interactions such as counter- and backward-propagating frequency conversion. In this work, we demonstrate scalable periodic poling of x-cut TFLN with domains periods as short as 215 nm and realize devices that support both counter- and back-propagating phase matching. We estimate conversion efficiencies of 1,474 %/W/cm
