A new methodology to continuously produce particle arrangements in a long microcapillary has been developed, providing a rapid and cost‐effective means to modify the inner surface (see Figure). The structure produced by this method has extensive applications in the microreactor field, such as catalysts (due to its large surface area), separation using the uniform voids between particles, and nanodevices using its controllable 3D structure.
