Individual, ultralong Cu@C coaxial nanocables show excellent electrical transport properties in the temperature range of 5–350 K, and the room‐temperature resistivity of the Cu nanowire core almost retains that of the bulk copper, indicating their potential application as connectors in micro‐ and nanodevices.
