The tailoring of the metal-polymer interface in hybrid materials plays a crucial role in modern advanced material science. Using glancing angle deposition of gold on a nanostructured diblock copolymer thin film (PS-b-PMMA), we are able to fabricate directional hierarchical structures. This approach exploits the selective wetting of Au on the PS block. We prove the asymmetric, localized growth of the gold nanoparticles and are able to extract the different growth laws by in situ scattering methods as well as imaging methods. The optical anisotropy of these hierarchical hybrid materials is probed by angular resolved spectroscopic methods and is correlated to the nanostructure. This approach offers the possibility to tailor functional hierarchical thin films for plasmonics and metamaterials, as nanoantennae arrays, in organic photovoltaics and sensor electronics.
