Supplementary Figure 2

(a) Schematic for the auto temperature controller of 3D coils. The auto temperature controller provides a low flow rate of 37 ℃ air to mitigate the potential local heating problem. (b) The size of 3D coils and stage. X and Y coils’ internal diameters are 4.1 cm and their external diameters are 6 cm; Z coils’ internal diameters are 5.1 cm and their external diameters are 7 cm. The coils’ thicknesses are 1 cm each. The stage top dimension are 16 cm x 11 cm x 0.5 cm, bottom dimensions are 15 cm x 10 cm x 0.5 cm. (c) Top view of the Z coils and dish. The diameter of the cell culture dish is 3.5 cm. In the top view, the lateral distance from the dish boundary to the Z coil is 0.8 cm.
