Supporting Information for "Solvent modulated specific ion effects: PNIPAM brushes in non-aqueous electrolytes"

<p>This deposition contains the data and analysis (Jupyter notebooks) detailed in&nbsp;<em>Solvent modulated specific ion effects: PNIPAM brushes in non-aqueous electrolytes</em>. All Jupyter notebooks have also been converted into PDF files for ease of viewing.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>All data and code (notebooks) required to reproduce the analysis can be found within the &ldquo;supporting_data_analysis.zip&rdquo; archive. This archive contains three sub-directories:</p> <ul> <li>Ellipsometry <ul> <li>Data directories containing all raw ellipsometry data for the &lsquo;thick&rsquo; and &lsquo;thin&rsquo; PNIPAM brushes.</li> <li>Spatial maps of the polymer brush used for spectroscopic ellipsometry data analysis: &ldquo;surface_map.png&rdquo;.</li> <li>&ldquo;refellips_Spectroscopic_SL.ipynb&rdquo; notebook to reproduce the analysis of the hydrated (solid-liquid) &lsquo;thin&rsquo; polymer brush. Relevant plotting tools can be found in the&nbsp;<a href="https://github.com/refnx/refellips">refellips repo</a>.</li> <li>&ldquo;Ellipsometry_logistical_fitting.ipynb&rdquo; notebook and &ldquo;water_results.csv&rdquo; file for the demonstration of the extraction of a thermotransition temperature from an ellipsometry dataset.&nbsp;</li> <li>&ldquo;refellips_Spectroscopic_SL_VFP.ipynb&rdquo; notebook to reproduce the analysis of the hydrated (solid-liquid) &lsquo;thick&rsquo; polymer brush.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Neutron_reflectometry <ul> <li>Data directory containing all relevant reduced reflectivity profiles from the Platypus reflectometer at ANSTO.</li> <li>&ldquo;refnx_dry.ipynb&rdquo; and &ldquo;refnx_solvent.ipynb&rdquo; notebooks required to reproduce the analysis pertaining to a dry polymer brush and a solvated brush, respectively.</li> <li>Additional code required to model the hydrated polymer brush and various plotting tools can be in the&nbsp;<a href="https://github.com/igresh/refnxtoolbox">refnxtoolbox repo</a>.</li> </ul> </li> </ul>
