Photonic Terahertz for 6G Communication.
Review in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 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
Terahertz (THz) communication has become a key enabling technology for the future sixth generation (6G) due to its rich spectrum resources, supporting emerging applications such as holographic communication and ultra-wideband transmission. This article provides a comprehensive review of recent advances in photonic THz communications, covering device, system, and antenna technologies. First, the electronic bottlenecks in conventional THz systems, including limited bandwidth and severe phase noise generated by frequency doubling, are discussed, emphasizing the advantages of photonic methods in ultra-wideband signal generation and seamless integration with fiber-optic networks. Then, the effects of the carrier transit time, absorber layer thickness, and saturation effects on the bandwidth efficiency performance in single-row carrier photodiodes are reviewed, as well as multi-parameter co-optimization strategies for an enhanced performance. In addition, the latest progress in high spectral efficiency (SE) multi-dimensional multiplexing, lightweight high-gain lens antennas and multi-antenna MIMO transmission mechanisms in multi-antenna THz systems are also summarized. Finally, the prospects and challenges of photonic THz communications in long-distance links and space applications are discussed.
