We would like to emphasize that we do not directly refer to the scaling laws for end-tethered polymer chains on flat surfaces of large area, which describe the influence of grafting density and polymer-solvent interactions onto their unstretched ("mushroom") versus stretched ("brush") conformation. See refs 25 and 26.
