49. The term "equilibrium" means the orientation of the lamellae does not change during annealing. But the relief pattern size is subject to change due to ripening.
50. Note that there is no topography-induced phase contrast between the islands and the valleys although there is a 20-nm fall which is much larger than that between the perpendicular lamellae.
