Fig. 4

a Montage of fluorescence images of cavity confined T4-DNA and plasmid DNA for cavities of varying eccentricity. The red color indicates T4-DNA while the green indicates plasmid DNA. The scale bars are 2 μm. b Histogram of plasmid center-position while confined with T4-DNA, yielding an estimate of the probability density function for plasmid position in the cavity. The scale bars from top to bottom correspond to 1 μm, 1 μm, 1 μm, 1.2 μm, 1.2 μm, 1.6 μm and 1.6 μm.
