Item Data for "Microfluidic long DNA sample preparation from cells" published as Lab Chip, 2019, 19, 281(2019-01-18) Agrawal, Paridhi; Dorfman, Kevin; agraw135@umn.edu; Agrawal, Paridhi; University of Minnesota Dorfman Research LabThis is the data for the article published as "Microfluidic long DNA sample preparation from cells" in Lab on a chip. The data includes DNA molecular weight distribution analysis and DNA concentration measurements from fluorometry data.Item Data for Equilibrium Phase Behavior of Gyroid-Forming Diblock Polymer Thin Films(2024-08-08) Magruder, Benjamin; Ellison, Christopher; Dorfman, Kevin; dorfman@umn.edu; Dorfman, Kevin; Dorfman Research GroupThe dataset contains the results of thin-film self-consistent field theory calculations for the double-gyroid phase and other related phases in AB diblock polymers. All results used to construct the figures in the referenced manuscript are included in this dataset, along with many of the scripts used to perform the analysis in the manuscript. To reduce the size of the dataset, we opted to include only the first and last field file in each parameter sweep, though we kept the corresponding summary file at every state point in every sweep, and included all necessary input files to regenerate the data if desired. The PSCF software package (C++ version) was used to generate this dataset (https://github.com/dmorse/pscfpp).Item Data from: Experimental evidence of weak excluded volume effects for nanochannel confined DNA(2015) Gupta, Damini; Miller, Jeremy J.; Muralidhar, Abhiram; Mahshid, Sara; Reisner, Walter; Dorfman, KevinItem Monte Carlo Simulation of Type IV Collagen Network Organization(2012-06-13) Gyoneva, Lazarina; Segal, Yoav; Dorfman, Kevin; Barocas, Victor H.Type IV collagen is found exclusively in basement membranes where it forms networks that provide much of the membrane's mechanical support. There are two types of collagen IV networks: major and minor, which have different properties. The objective of this project is to use a Monte Carlo simulation to determine the influence of molecular differences on the collagen IV network properties.Item Supporting Data for Circular Dichroism of Distorted Double Gyroid Thin Film Metamaterials(2024-11-04) McGuinness, Emily; Magruder, Benjamin; Dorfman, Kevin; Ellison, Chris; Ferry, Vivian; veferry@umn.edu; Ferry, Vivian; Department of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science, University of MinnesotaStrong circular dichroism (CD) has been reported in triply periodic, co-continuous gyroid thin films for certain orientations and surface terminations. However, processing of gyroid thin films introduces distortions experimentally, creating a mismatch between the structures created practically and those explored computationally. This work explores the impact of compression normal to the substrate (z-compression) with conserved volume in (110)-oriented plasmonic silver double gyroid thin films on CD using finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulations. As compression reaches fifteen percent and above, new features emerge including termination-dependent opposite-handed CD responses and, at larger compressions, shorter wavelength responses that span many surface terminations. The longest wavelength responses of the system red-shift with increasing compression. The top surface structure contributes strongly to the emerging opposite-handed features and red-shifting of wavelengths. However, the less surface termination dependent features arise from a mixture of contributions from the top surface and interior of the films. Interplay of these leads to CD-switching phenomena as a function of compression for certain terminations and wavelengths. When alternative methods are utilized to compress the system, such as compression with a Poisson’s ratio of 0.33 (comparable to polystyrene) or the generation of compressed equilibrium structures with non-affine strut changes via self-consistent field theory, similar optical responses persist. Overall, this study highlights the significant impact experimentally relevant distortions (especially compression and some non-affine structural shifts) can have on the CD response of block copolymer templated plasmonic double gyroid thin films, and provides mechanistic insight into the film interior versus surface contributions to the CD response during compression.
