Here, the formation of carbon nanotube (CNT)‐based nanohybrids in aqueous solution is reported, where DNA‐wrapped CNTs (DNA‐CNTs) act as templates for the growth of PbS and CdS nanocrystals, toward the formation of PbS‐DNA‐CNT and CdS‐DNA‐CNT heterostructures. Solution‐processed multiplexed photores...
