Engineered Strain in 2D Materials by Direct Growth on Deterministically Patterned Grayscale Topographies.
Article in Advanced science (Weinheim, Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Strain is a proven technique for modifying the bandgap and enhancing carrier mobility in 2D materials. Most current strain engineering techniques rely on the post-growth transfer of these atomically thin materials from growth substrates to target surfaces, limiting their integration into nanoelectronics. Here, we present a new approach where strain in 2D materials is already introduced directly during their growth on grayscale-patterned topographies instead of flat surfaces. Both strain levels and orientations are deterministically engineered by controlling grayscale surface contour lengths through thermal expansion mismatches in nanostructured stacks, where the conformally grown and firmly attached 2D material is forced to match the underlying morphology change during cooling. With this method, we experimentally demonstrate precise control of localized tensile strain from 0 to 0.5% in grown MoS
