Summary: Salicylic acid‐doped hollow polyaniline and rhodamine B composite spheres (1.9–3.3 µm in average diameter) with a high conductivity (≈10 −1 S · cm −1 ) and a strong fluorescence were synthesized by a template‐free method. The morphologies, electrical and fluorescent properties of the hollow composite microspheres can be adjusted by changing the content of RhB in the composites opening a simple route to preparing multi‐functionalized micro/nanostructures.SEM and TEM images of PANI‐SA/RhB synthesized under concentration of 1 × 10 −3 M RhB.
