We study the conformational behavior of a polymer adsorbed at an attractivenanostring and construct the complete structural phase diagram in dependence ofthe binding strength and effective thickness of the string. For this purpose,Monte Carlo optimization techniques are employed to identify lowest-energystructures for a coarse-grained hybrid polymer-wire model. Among therepresentative conformations in the different phases are, for example, compactdroplets attached to the string and also nanotube-like monolayer films wrappingthe string in a very ordered way. We here systematically analyze low-energyshapes and structural order parameters to elucidate the transitions between thestructural phases.
