What is Fabrication of Self-Assembled PEDOT/PSS-ZnO Nanocables with Diverse Inner Core Sizes Facilitated by Vacuum Conditions about?

## Abstract **Summary:** In this paper, PEDOT/PSS‐ZnO coaxial nanocables with diverse inner core sizes are prepared by a new and facile method that involves two‐steps: the synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles through a sol‐gel process, followed by dewetting‐controlled self‐assembly of the nanoparticles and charged polymers to generate a cable‐like nanostructure with the aid of a vacuum. The nanocables have an outer diameter of ca. 100 nm with a polycrystalline ZnO inner core of 7–25 nm in diameter. The length and morphology of the nanocables are determined by external vacuum conditions as well as the ZnO concentration in the composite. A photoluminescence study shows an enhanced green light emission arising from ZnO with a size‐dependence feature.
