Sample area overview. (a) CAD representation of the mounted sample holder. (b) Aluminium sample holder with an indication of extruded material in blue. (c) Schematic design of the optical tweezers sample environment. The quartz capillary, filled with medium and microalgae, is mounted on top of a quartz coverslip. The dimensions are indicated by the double arrows and have a different scaling for clarity, adapted from Santucci et al. (2011). (d) Transmitted signal pattern by scanning a mounted sample through the X-ray beam. |
