Vibrational Energy Transfer in Organic Semiconductors Revealed by Infrared Pump-Probe Spectroscopy.
Article in The journal of physical chemistry letters, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Phonon engineering has improved charge transport in semiconducting organic molecules by introducing high mass side chains, which ameliorate harmful transient localization. The influence of these side chains on thermal energy transfer and dynamic disorder has not been fully explored. In this work, we first use low temperature X-ray diffraction to probe thermally induced structural changes in functionalized acene molecular semiconductors, combined with low temperature IR spectroscopy to track changes to their vibrational energy landscape. Furthermore, time-resolved IR pump-IR probe spectroscopy is employed to measure IR absorption kinetics associated with the high mass side chains of molecules, revealing intramolecular vibrational energy redistribution pathways. Alkyne groups in the side chains are shown to act as vibrational energy traps, remaining hot for time scales of >2 ns. The results reveal nonequilibrium vibrational pathways associated with side chains that may influence the phonon manifold relevant to dynamic disorder.
