a Final positions and configurations of single SW molecules after 1 μs at different temperatures. b Schematic illustration of representative positions of the molecules (top). Standard deviation of the mean square displacement (MSD) - \({\delta }_{{\rm{core}}}\) - of the SW centre of mass as a function of time for different temperatures (middle). Standard deviation of the MSD - δchain - of a SW chain as a function of time for different temperatures (bottom). The MSD itself (shown in Supplementary Fig. 6) and its standard deviation are obtained through a running time average of 1 ns.
