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

Cooperative emission of indistinguishable photons from multiple distant sources can enable quantum information processing, and low-density semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) embedded in metasurfaces hold promise to scale up this functionality. However, the inhomogeneity in size within QD ensembles and limited interresonator coupling in local metasurfaces make this effect highly unlikely. Here, we demonstrate a nonlocal metasurface platform with embedded GaAs QDs coupled to extended photonic modes with emission wavelength tunability and enhanced free-space emission outcoupling. Natural variation in the QD dipole moment allows us to tune two QDs into spectral alignment and resonance with selected modes. As a result, two distant QDs can produce same-wavelength photons with strongly improved outcoupling efficiency to free space. The nonlocal and periodic nature of the developed metasurface eliminates the need for precise placement of individual QDs and, although cooperative emission was not yet demonstrated, this metasurface platform opens doors for investigations of cooperative effects for quantum information system applications.
