Redmond and co‐workers report on p. 2379 the successful application of solution‐assisted template wetting to the high‐yield controlled synthesis of poly[(9,9‐dioctylfluorenyl‐2,7‐diyl)‐ co ‐(bithiophene)] (F8T2) nanowires (main picture and lower inset). Photoconductivity measurements (schematic in center) yield single‐nanowire device responsivities of ca. 0.4 mA W –1 and external quantum efficiencies of ca. 0.1 % under monochromatic illumination, comparable with data reported for single inorganic nanowire devices.
