PEDOT nanorods have been fabricated using reverse cylindrical micelle‐mediated interfacial polymerization without any templates and applied as chemical sensors for the detection of HCl and NH 3 vapor. The PEDOT nanorods, shown in the Figure, display very stable conductivity. The chemical sensors can detect low vapor concentrations and exhibit a reversible and reproducible response.
