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

Organic radicals have shown promise for tunable and low-cost spintronic devices. However, integrating the radicals with a Si metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) structure remains a challenge. Here, we incorporate stable (4-(((2,5-bis(2-(phenyl)ethynyl)phenyl)carbonyl)(methyl)amino)-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-yl)oxidanyl (TEMPO-OPE) radicals in a Si-MOS-based double-tunnel junction and demonstrate a huge positive magnetoresistance of up to 400% at a magnetic field of 7 T and a temperature of 3 K. This goes along with a significant reduction of the differential conductance peak corresponding to the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) of TEMPO-OPE under external magnetic fields. First-principles calculations suggest that the singly occupied molecular orbital can mix with the HOMO of TEMPO-OPE. This could lead to suppression of the HOMO conductance peak under magnetic fields and, thus, provide a possible origin of the large magnetoresistance. These findings suggest a path toward incorporating magnetic molecular functionalities into conventional Si devices, leading to large-scale integration of molecular spintronic devices.
