Scalable nanopatterning of organic light-emitting diodes beyond the diffraction limit.
Article in Nature photonics, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Miniaturization of light-emitting diodes below the diffraction limit of the emission wavelength can enable super-resolution imaging and on-chip light sources for ultrabroadband chiplet communication. Organic light-emitting diodes, although suitable for miniaturization due to their emission from localized excitons, suffer from the limited compatibility of organic materials with traditional photolithographic patterning. Here we develop a method for the scalable fabrication of nanoscale organic light-emitting diodes with pixel densities up to 100,000 pixels per inch, periodicity of 250 nm and the smallest pixel size in the order of 100 nm. We realize the direct nanoscale patterning of organic semiconductors by self-aligned nanostencil etching and lithography. The process is resist-free and involves etching and evaporation through nanoapertures in a free-standing film adhering to the substrate. A nanoscale organic light-emitting diode surface with over 1 megapixel exhibits an average external quantum efficiency of 13.1%. We also demonstrate electroluminescent metasurfaces with subwavelength-scale meta-atoms that can electrically modulate the emitted light. The diffractive coupling between nanopixels enables control over the far-field emission properties of light, including directionality and polarization. These results pave the way for hybrid integrated photonics technologies, including visible-light communication, lasing and high-resolution displays.
