Effect of molecular architecture on ring polymer dynamics in semidilute linear polymer solutions

Understanding the dynamics of ring polymers is challenging are despite recent progress, understanding of the nonequilibrium behavior of ring polymers has not yet been achieved. Here, the authors directly observe the flow dynamics of DNA-based rings in semidilute linear polymer solutions using single...
