Propagation of electrons along helical polyalanine-based backbone structures comes along with a robust spin polarization effect. How- ever, studies on a molecular scale are still rare, although this length scale provides direct insight into the role of molecular properties. The self-assembly process and electronic transmission properties of race- mats of right and left handed *-helix polyalanine (DL-PA) molecules from solution on atomically smooth and magnetically switchable Al2O3/Pt/Au/Co/Au substrates was investigated by ambient scan- ning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy. For various lengths of molecules with and without a cysteine termination, we studied the spin polarization in detail. The phase separation into well-ordered enantiopure hexagonal phases and hetero-dimer structures (DL-PA) allow for the analysis of the spin polarization of PA molecules in different environments. The spin polarization reaches up to 70% for chemisorbed molecules arranged in an hexagonal phase. Our results clearly demonstrate that both the coupling as well as the ordering and coordination are important in order to achieve a high spin-polarization in chiral systems.
