Highly oriented fibers of regioregular poly(3‐alkylthiophene)s with a “shish‐kebab” morphology are prepared by epitaxy on long needles of 1,3,5‐trichlorobenzene grown in liquid pyridine, as described on page 2759 by Brinkmann et al. The superstructure of the fibers consists of a highly oriented thread‐like core several hundreds of micrometers long, the “shish”, onto which lateral crystalline nanofibrils made of folded polymer chains, the “kebabs”, are connected in a periodic way.
