In the course of characterizing the structure of polymers in contact with solid surfaces, the adsorption of Poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) on Au(001) [1] leads to a 2D random coil like chain configuration but also molecules in straight all-trans geometry are found.
Here we present the investigation of P3HT on the (2 x 1)-missing-row reconstructed Au(110) surface, which provides a stronger 1D template for polymere adsorption. In situ scanning tunneling microscopy reveals molecular P3HT chains which are constraint into a fully stretched configuration along the [110] and [001] high symmetry directions indicating a strong molecule-substrate interaction. Chains parallel to the [110] direction are embedded into the surface by the removal of one or two Au reconstruction rows. Beside these straight polymer sections also polymers aligned in the [001] direction or under discrete angles with respect to the surface reconstruction are present together with a minority in random coil configuration.
