Fig. 8.

Comparison of the height–height undulation spectrum (left) and the observed values of the elastic Hamiltonian (Hel) (right) in presence of rigid (red, A–C), rigid-tethered (blue, D–F), and flexible (green, G–I) NPs. The fitted spectra provided by observed bending rigidity (κ) and tension (σ) values are represented by lines in the left panel. The left panel corresponds to the S1 case, which does not include a curvature term, while the right panel represents the S2 case which includes curvature.
