We report on in-situ studies on the structure of ultrathin films of the ionic liquid (IL) 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluoromethanesulfonate ([EMIm][OTf]) on Au(111). The IL thin films were prepared by physical vapor deposition and investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). We carried out measurements at sample temperatures between 100 K and 350 K on submonolayers and monolayers of [EMIm][OTf]. In this temperature range, we identified three different surface structures. At a submonolayer coverage, [EMIm][OTf] tends to exhibit a 2D-glass structure growing close to gold terraces and the elbows of the herringbone structure of Au(111). Oblique and hexagonal structures of the IL are visible at higher coverage. We investigated the phase transitions and the melting behavior of these wetting layers by temperature dependent STM measurements. Ordered domains are visible above the bulk melting temperature up to 350 K.
