The Supplementary Information contained a typographical error in the second sentence of the caption of Supplementary Fig. 6, and incorrectly read:
“Time gating settings are \({t}_{{{{{{{{\rm{Start}}}}}}}}}=2\,{{{{{{{\rm{ns}}}}}}}}\) and Δt = 16.5 ns”.
The correct sentence is:
“Time gating settings are \({t}_{{{{{{{{\rm{Start}}}}}}}}}=2\,{{{{{{{\rm{ns}}}}}}}}\) and Δt = 16 ns”.
