Vacuum vapor deposition of copper nanorods and nanowires (see Figure) is reported. This novel one‐step procedure involves copper vapor generation and redeposition on a substrate under very low pressure or vacuum conditions. Nanorods and nanowires of a variety of materials apart from copper, e.g., other metals, alloys, and semiconductors, can also be synthesized using this method.
