Extended Data Fig. 7: Solvent–solvent relative orientation in the 1st solvation shell, 2nd shell, and beyond the SWCNT solvation shells, scaled to cover the full g(r) range of each individual aRDF.

Angular RDFs of NMP (a, c) and DMAc (b, d) with defined axes (top) of x along the C = O axis that approximates the direction of the dipole and z normal to the molecular plane. Inter-z (θzz, a, b) and inter-x (θxx, c, d) angles, binned in 10° increments. Data sampled from solvents with CoM found within (i) 1st SWCNT solvation shell (NMP-SWCNT < 5.9 Å; DMAc-SWCNT < 6.1 Å), (ii) 2nd SWCNT solvation shell (NMP-SWCNT 5.9–12.1 Å; DMAc-SWCNT 6.1–11.9 Å), and (iii) beyond the second SWCNT solvation shell (>12.2 Å and > 11.9 Å from the SWNCT wall for NMP/DMAc, respectively). The g(r,θ) intensity is given by colour scale inset in each graph.
