15. Gold and nickel were selected for the sections in the rods primarily for convenience. See Supporting Information for details.
16. A suspension of unmagnetized rods persists for several minutes (>3).
17. This model should predict the behavior of the microscopic rods because the extent of magnetic interactions between ferromagnetic objects scales with their size.
