58. The sample with the highest polyisoprene fraction in the copolymer (SI-20) shows an apparent surface enrichment (z* ≅ 4.1 nm) which is much higher that in any other film. However, in that case auto-dewetting occurred and both the surface of the dewetting structure as well as the surface of the thin remaining film are observed; therefore, one should not compare this measurement to the others. This, however, indicates that the dewetting may take place on top of a brush formed by the copolymer segregation to the substrate interface.
