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

We report acoustic control of spin resonance in nitrogen-vacancy (NV-) centers in diamond using low-frequency free-space sound waves. Acoustic excitation redistributes spin populations between the |+1⟩ and |-1⟩ states, producing an asymmetric, tunable double-dip ODMR spectrum without shifting resonance frequencies. This contrasts with conventional magnetic-field-induced splitting and reveals a previously unobserved mechanism for spin manipulation via strain-mediated acoustic coupling. Analytical modeling captures the essential features of the amplitude flipping and elucidates the underlying spin-strain interaction. Our findings establish a new degree of freedom for selective multimodal quantum sensing and open avenues for hybrid spin-mechanical quantum devices.
