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

Nanodiamonds (NDs) are key materials for building nanoscale quantum sensing, imaging and communication devices. Scalable configuration of single NDs on heterogeneous platforms, forming quantum emitter arrays, will be an essential solution towards realizing next-generation scalable quantum devices. However, NDs are challenging to manipulate because their size, shape and surface chemistry vary substantially. Here, we show a simple method based on electrostatic-trapping to rapidly and reliably pattern single ND arrays on arbitrary substrates at scale. Our method, which uses carefully engineered microscale hole templates and electrostatic force, captures single NDs across 8-inch wafers with 82.5% yields within 5 min. Systematic experimental and theoretical studies show the number of deposited NDs primarily depends on the diameter of the hole trap. The method is compatible with mature CMOS technologies, enabling the mass production of scalable and integrable quantum devices. This advancement is expected to accelerate the commercialization and industrial adoption of ND-based technologies.
