Table 1.

Thermal activation parameters obtained from fitting the Bell model to the low- and high-force regimes for the LO and LD phases

Phase state Potential width, xβ Natural lifetime, τ0,Bell
Low-force regime LO 1.5 nm 90 s
LD 1.5 nm 11 s
High-force regime LO 0.8 nm 1 s
LD 0.7 nm 0.1 s

See Fig. 5 for a visual representation of the fit.
