We have performed multi-canonical chain-growth simulations of a polymer interacting with an adsorbing surface. The polymer, which is not explicitly anchored at the surface, experiences a hierarchy of phase transitions between conformations binding and nonbinding with the substrate. We discuss the phase diagram in the temperature-solubility plane and highlight the transition path through the free-energy landscape.
