Doped and wired : The organization of the π functional units in amide‐functionalized tetrathiafulvalene in a gel by hydrogen‐bonding interactions has given rise to nanofibers. Doping with iodine generates a conducting material, which upon annealing gives rise to nanowires with metal‐like conductivity (see current‐sensing AFM image).
