Squaraine nanowires self‐organize into a well‐ordered film through a simple solvent‐evaporation process at the dichloromethane/water interface. The film can be transferred onto various substrates or stacked layer‐by‐layer into a multilayered structure. This one‐step approach offers a low‐cost method for producing scalable films of aligned organic nanowires suitable for large‐scale applications.
