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

Strong coupling between quantum emitters and optical cavities underpins many quantum photonic technologies, yet achieving this regime at room temperature in compact, deterministic on-chip platforms remains challenging due to the difficulty of fabricating cavities with ultrasmall mode volumes and precisely positioning quantum emitters. Here, we demonstrate a robust quantum plasmonic device in which colloidal quantum dots are strongly coupled to plasmonic slit cavities. Our dielectrophoresis-based positioning technique with real-time photoluminescence feedback enables parallel device fabrication and straightforward integration with additional optical elements, such as waveguides. Our measurements reveal clear photoluminescence-resolved Rabi splitting at room temperature in precharacterized cavities, with device-to-device variations scaling with the average number of coupled quantum dots. While electrical tuning via the quantum-confined Stark effect is enabled by integrated electrodes, its impact is largely overshadowed by room-temperature spectral diffusion. These results establish a scalable and electrically addressable plasmonic platform for room-temperature quantum technologies.
