A unique methodology for connecting organic nanowires is presented. Metal nanoparticles deposited along the primary organic nanowires act as both nucleation sites and Ohmic connections for the secondary nanowires. These nanowires are formed by self-assembly of π-conjugated molecules and large charge mobility is expected along the nanowires axis.
