Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • The inhomogeneous linewidth varies for different quantum dots and typically increases at larger excitation power.

    “The inhomogeneous linewidth varies for different QDs and typically shows an increase at larger excitation power (see Fig. S3), which is in qualitative agreement with previous investigations of light-induced spectral diffusion [7].”
  • Spectral diffusion should happen at a time scale much longer than the 2-ns separation, consistent with previous experiments.

    “The spectral diffusion (as shown in Fig. 2c) should also happen at a time scale much longer than the 2-ns separation, which is consistent with previous experiments [5,7,15,40].”
  • The increase in ω_G at larger excitation power is in qualitative agreement with previous investigations of light-induced spectral diffusion.

    “As plotted in the inset of Fig. S3, the ω G shows a increase at larger excitation power, which is in qualitative agreement with previous investigations of light-induced spectral diffusion [7].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
