description: &lt;p&gt;Raw data of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), force spectroscopy, data analysis and plotting, optical microscopy, and finite element simulations (FEA) for our manuscript.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;File Formats&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;AFM raw data&lt;/em&gt; is provided in Gwyddion format, which can be viewed using the Gwyddion AFM viewer, which has been released under the GNU public software licence GPLv3 and can be downloaded free of charge at &lt;a href="http://gwyddion.net/"&gt;http://gwyddion.net/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;Optical microscopy&lt;/em&gt; data is provided in JPEG format&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;SEM raw data&lt;/em&gt; is provided in TIFF format&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;Data analysis codes&lt;/em&gt; were written in MATLAB (&lt;a href="https://www.mathworks.com/products/matlab"&gt;https://www.mathworks.com/products/matlab&lt;/a&gt;) and stored as *.m files&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;Imported raw data to MATLAB and saved MATLAB data&lt;/em&gt; were stored as MATLAB multidimensional arrays (MATLAB “struct” data format, *.mat files)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;FEA results&lt;/em&gt; were saved as text files, .txt files)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;Data (Folder Structure)&lt;/h2&gt;
The data in the dataverse is best viewed in "Tree" mode.
