What this publication reports

10 values across 1 property and 2 served specimens, at stated temperatures from 300 to 700 K.

Figure of merit zt (10).

The publication's own wording is the fourth column, past the edge of this screen: the table scrolls sideways inside its box and the property stays in place while it does.

Every value this release published, under the specimen it was served for, with the condition it was published under and the wording the publication used. Select a row to read that value in full.

A condition is the temperature a value was published under, as this release states it. Rows are in served order: nothing is ranked, converted or joined into a curve, and a shared property does not make two rows comparable.

Nothing is recorded against the values this release published. That is not a statement that none exist.

How the specimens were prepared

The record's own steps, in order, each with the passage it was read from.

  1. cutting monolayer from bulk structure

    S_bulk_MoO3producesS_MoO3_monolayer

    As shown in Figure 1a, the MoO3 monolayer is cut from an orthorhombic α-MoO3 bulk structure (space group Pbnm), and the primitive cell contains eight atoms.

  2. creating neutral oxygen vacancy

    S_MoO3_monolayerproducesS_defective_MoO3_monolayer

    Therefore, we remove one O atom from the 3 × 3 × 1 supercell (72 atoms) to construct a neutral defect, such that the stoichiometric proportion is MoO2.94.

Interpretation

Figure of merit zt

0.12dimensionlessat 300 K

A dimensionless quantity. The normalized unit 1 is correct and derived; the source printed no unit characters for it to be read from, which is why its unit is unavailable below rather than verified.

Method
Not stated by supported metadata

Specimen S_defective_MoO3_monolayer, made in step 2, creating neutral oxygen vacancy, from S_MoO3_monolayer.

into the active investigation

As the publication words it

The maximum ZT values along the x- and the y-axis are 0.83 and 0.12, respectively, at room temperature.

Unit and where it came from

Normalized unit
Dimensionless (UCUM 1)
Unit provenance
Not read from the source

A normalized or derived unit may still be correct. What this says is that the source supplied nothing the unit could be bound to.

a dimensionless quantity prints no unit surface beside its value; what follows it here is a condition or prose, and the resolved unit is legitimately derived, not read

This is not missing data. A dimensionless quantity has no unit characters to print beside its value, so the normalized unit is legitimately derived rather than read from the page.

How the value was normalized

none (reported unit retained); profile unit table

Source wording grouped for this value

No grouping was released for this value. It is not reconstructed from nearby text.

Exactly as this release served them. Not a score, and not a statement that the publication's own reading is correct.

How this record was built

The source was retained and candidate claims were read out of it. Of the 40 parts its published values could carry evidence for, 30 could be checked back against the retained page. Each step's quantity is drawn from the one above it.

The retained source

This release retained 4 source artifacts. Every passage on this page is read from those bytes and from nothing else.

Counts describe scope. They are not a confidence score, and a larger number does not make a value stronger. Each figure counts claim entries the release served, one per claim id, not distinct scientific findings: two entries may report the same value, and both are kept with their own id, evidence and disposition rather than merged or judged to be one finding.

How much of each value is anchored

Of the 40 parts these values could carry evidence for, 30 were read from the retained source and checked against it.
