In article number 1907422, Sergiy Minko and co‐workers introduce a gravitational fiber drawing method for the fabrication of monofilament nano‐ and microfibers and assemble them in highly ordered 3D arrays with controllable interfiber spacing and fiber angular orientation. The complex 3D constructs are made of fibers with different diameters, draw ratios, compositions, and organizations via an additive manufacturing approach.
