One‐dimensional (1D) structures with nanometer diameter are expected to have remarkable properties that are in principle tunable by varying the diameter and chirality. Most previous research on 1D materials concentrated on carbon‐based nanomaterials and require extreme preparation conditions. Here the authors report a novel route to PbSe nanowires (see Figure) under mild conditions at room temperature.
