12. In, where a similar cell was used, a smaller β value was found. The reason maybe that in the present experiments the final measurements were performed several month after the sample preparation, which gave enough time for the stabilization of the equilibrium state of the polymer-nematic interface.
13. The definition of ξ given here differs in the factor Q 0 from that in. The present definition corresponds to the usual description of the extrapolation length.
