PbS nanoparticles dispersed in polymer‐fiber matrices by electrospinning are presented (see Figure). These PbS nanoparticles are roughly spherical in shape, each with a diameter of approximately 5 nm, and do not aggregate. This method will open up a wide route to functionalizing surfaces which can enable the fabrication of new types of optical, electric, and magnetic devices.
