The formation of regular stripe patterns during transfer of surfactant monolayers onto solid substrates is investigated. Two coupled differential equations describing the surfactant density and the height profile of the water subphase are derived within the lubrication approximation. If the transfer is carried out in the vicinity la first order phase transition of the surfactant, the interaction with the substrate plays a key role. This effect is included in the surfactant free-energy functional via a height-dependent external field. Using transfer velocity as a control parameter, a bifurcation from a homogeneous transfer to regular stripe patterns arranged parallel to the contact line is investigated in one and two dimensions. Moreover, in the two-dimensional case, a secondary bifurcation to perpendicular stripes is observed in a certain control parameter range.
