An in situ small-angle x-ray scattering study of the nanoparticle displacement in a self-assembled monolayer as a function of a supporting membrane strain is presented. The average nanoparticle spacing is 6.7 nm in the unstrained state and increases in the applied force direction, following linearly the membrane strain which reaches the maximum value of 11%. The experimental results suggest a continuous mutual shift of the nanoparticles and their gradual separation with the growing stress rather than nanoparticle islands formation. No measurable shift of the nanoparticles was observed in the direction perpendicular to the applied stress.
