a NR (log scale) of a d-PSS/PAH multilayer with 73 layer pairs prepared by dipping from 2 M NaCl solutions (red points, error bars showing the statistical counting error). The black solid line corresponds to a fit to the data. Data were collected on the D17 reflectometer at the ILL. b Part of the SLD profile (red solid line) corresponding to the fit to the NR curve from (a) (Fitting parameters can be found in the Supplementary Table. 2). The broken black line is the SLD profile of a single PSS layer and the blue solid line is a Gaussian fit to the former. The small arrow underneath the maximum of the broken line indicates the radius of gyration of the Gaussian fit.
