The effect of masked UV irradiation on distribution of monolayer polar lubricant films over solid surfaces was investigated by molecular dynamics simulations. Consistent with experimental results, the simulation results showed that masked UV irradiation induces a patterned surface structure with thicker lubricant in the irradiated area than in the non-irradiated area. Such structure was caused by the stretch of the lubricant molecules in the film thickness direction following the increase of molecule density in the irradiated area.
