We study the process of a semiflexible polymer chain adsorption on to planar surface by the dynamic Monte Carlo (DMC) method, based on the 3D off-lattice model. Both the strength of attractive monomer-surface interaction (ε a ) and bending energy (b) have pronounced effect on the adsorption and shape of semiflexible polymer chain. The semiflexible polymer can just fully adsorb on to the surface at certain ε a , which is defined as critical ε a The essential features of the semiflexible polymer adsorption on to surface are that (i) the critical ε a increases with increase in b; (ii) the shape of the fully adsorbed semiflexible polymer chain is film-like toroid, and the toroid becomes more and more perfect with increase in b In addition, the size of toroid and the number of turns of toroid can be controlled by the b and ε a .
