In this work, we synthesized a novel perylene tetracarboxylic acid diimides derivative (APBI-G) which shows a strong self-assembling tendency to the semiconducting nano/microwires based on the augmented intermolecular hydrogen bonding interaction. We demonstrate the spinning of continuous thread of APBI-G from the liquid-liquid interface and also the fabrication of patterned nano/microwire arrays using MIMIC (micromolding in capillaries) method. MIMIC-fabricated APBI-G nano/microwires showed the excellent uniaxial orientation, large birefringence, and reproducible electrical conductivity (1.93 +/- 0.47 x 10(-6) S cm(-1)).
