Resumen: Layered CoO2 is of great interest for its promising properties but is meta‐stable in its bulk form. CoO2 is synthesized by converting the quasi‐1D crystal structure of bulk Ca3Co2O6 via a hydrothermal treatment. The resulting nanostructures are predominantly nanoscrolls with very thin walls, which exhibit long‐term stability. A detailed structural investigation reveals that the CoO2 is found to crystallize in monoclinic form, similar to the related CaCoO2‐CoO2 misfit structure. Individual nanoscrolls are characterized electrically and show a p‐type semiconducting nature with a high current‐carrying capacity of 4·105 A cm−2 and an extremely high breakdown voltage of up to 270 kV cm−1. The results demonstrate the possibility to stabilize meta‐stable materials in low‐dimensional forms and a promising application of the nanoscrolls as interconnect in high‐voltage electronic circuitry.
