Fig. 3: Nonbonded interaction energies between nicked-DNA and 2D nanopore membranes.

Plot of pairwise interaction (Van der Waals) energies (E_VdW) calculated between various nick sites and 2D membranes: a E_VdW calculated between nicks and graphene during the translocation event and b E_VdW calculated between nicks and MoS₂ during the translocation event.
