Improved Charge Transport and Device Performance in p-i-n Carbon Electrode Perovskite Solar Cells Using SiC-APTES Additive.
Article in Small (Weinheim an der Bergstrasse, Germany), 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
Carbon-based electrodes offer a low-cost and stable alternative to noble metals in lead halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs), yet their integration into high-performing planar p-i-n architectures remains limited by poor interfacial contact and processing-induced damage to thin electron transport layers (ETLs). Here, we introduce 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES)-functionalized cubic SiC (SiC-APTES) nanoparticles as a novel ETL-like additive for carbon pastes (CP). Surface functionalization enables uniform dispersion, dramatically improves the rheology of CP, and promotes intimate contact with the ETL. The SiC-APTES additive to CP boosts the power conversion efficiency from 14.75% to 18.43%, by reducing the series resistance and hysteresis. The resulting devices exhibit good stability under ambient operation, positioning the SiC-APTES additive as an effective strategy for low-cost p-i-n carbon-electrode PSCs toward future scalability.
