Two‐ and three‐dimensional hierarchical microstructures that are composed of rare‐earth compound nanotubes have been formed by utilizing both the self‐assembly phenomenon of the nanotubes and reactions at various interfaces. The template‐free synthesis of the nanotubes by a homogeneous precipitation method controlled via coexisting anions is also described.
