On‐surface polymerization is feasible on semiconducting surfaces. Thermally triggered covalent coupling of 10,10′‐dibromo‐9,9′‐bianthryl molecules on the TiO 2 (011)‐(2×1) surface is demonstrated. The result paves the way for application of the thermally driven on‐surface polymerization on semiconducting surfaces and indicates that methods based on such a reaction are more universal than previously thought.
