11. See EPAPS Document No. E-APPLAB-94-043904 for six supplementary figures. These include cross-sectional analysis of the topography and second harmonic overlaid to illustrate the lack of correlation between signals. High and low magnification images of other trapped S. aureus bacteria along with more amplitude-distance data to illustrate reproducibility of the technique.
