25. There is a possibility that nanotubes may assume 2-D (or partial 2-D) in-plane orientation on the surface of a cured polymer droplet. However in our case the surface has been polished away to reveal the bulk of the composite, where 3-D isotropic orientation is expected. The simulations of the line shapes for 2-D in-plane orientation produced poor results, which excludes such possibility (see Supporting information).
26. 4 θ dependence was recently confirmed in high accuracy measurements on nanotubes well aligned in PVA fibers [28]
