26. For example, when PEO454-b-PMA(Az)123 template film with 70 nm thickness, [HAuCl4] = 0.5M was employed as fixed factors and the doping time was changed from 10 s to 120min, the average gold particle size and the gap was changed from 22 ? 4 and 28 ? 7nm to 29 ? 4 and 23 ? 5 nm, respectively.

28. Enhancement factor (EF) is defined as (ISERS/IRaman)(Nbulk/Nads), where ISERS and IRaman are the intensity of a sample on gold nanoparticle array and Si wafer, respectively. Nbulk and Nads are the number of molecules on Si wafer and gold nanoparticle array, respectively. We used the concentration of a sample solution instead of the number of molecules in this study.

30. To estimate the surface area of gold nanoparticle, we assumed the gold nanoparticles are spherical segment in which diameter of base circles is 29 nm and a height of the segment is 5 nm.
31. Nbulk and Nads used for correction were estimated from following equation; Nbulk = (mole of 4-Spy)/(surface area of Si wafer) Nads = (mole of 4-Spy)/(surface area of gold nanoparticles)
