One dimensional systems constitute a new class of advanced materials. They have attracted a great deal of research interest because of their potential applications ranging from molecular electronics, thermoelectric devices to chemical sensors. Many ways allow to the control, the direct growth and the assembly of nanoscale particles, such as microemulsion and chemical vapour deposition. Among these methods, polymer encapsulation could be an appropriate way to control the growth and the assembly of inorganic nanoparticles.
