On p. 2983 Michael J. Brett and co‐workers demonstrate a template‐directed technique to produce arrays of silicon nanotubes (SiNTs) with highly engineerable morphology. Fabrication steps include glancing angle deposition (GLAD) of the templates, low‐pressure CVD of a shell‐Si coating, ion milling to expose the templates, and wet‐chemical etching for removal of the templates. The technique may be generally adapted to a wide variety of morphologies and NT materials.
