Abstract

Abstract Epitaxially grown nanowires of semiconducting thiophene/phenylene co‐oligomers (TPCOs) were prepared by mask‐shadowing deposition on a cleaved (001) surface of a potassium chloride (KCl) crystal. Under optical pumping, single nanowires of both unsubstituted (p‐type) and cyano‐substituted (n‐type) TPCOs exhibited axial Fabry–Pérot (F‐P) lasing above a threshold fluence which decreased to 11–15 μJ cm−2 with increasing nanowire lengths. Their lying molecular orientation and stacking along the nanowire axis in both TPCOs are suitable for effective light propagation with transverse‐electric mode resulting in better lasing performances compared to two‐dimensional platelet crystals of TPCOs.
