We have investigated the nanostructures formed on top of a block copolymer film surface during evaporation of the solvent of a dispersion of gold nanoparticles coated with PEG ligands. The copolymer film contained regular array of PMMA domains in the matrix of PS [1].Presence of ligands can, in the one hand, enhance the selectivity of adsorption and in the other hand, can slow down the migrational flow of the nanoparticles. As a result, several phenomena including selective adsorption, evaporation induced multiscale nanostructures formation and mesoscopic crystallization can be observed [2]. All these open questions have been investigated with in situ micro-beam grazing incidence small angle X-ray scattering (in situ μGISAXS) in combination with in-situ ellipsometry [3, 4] at P03 (MiNaXS) beamline of PETRA III storage ring of HASYLAB at DESY, Hamburg, Germany.
