The above article, published online on 1 February 2018 in Wiley Online Library (wileyonlinelibrary.com), has been retracted by agreement between the authors, Naohiro Kameta, Yuichi Manaka, Haruhisa Akiyama and Toshimi Shimizu; the journal Editor‐in‐Chief, Monty Montano; and Wiley‐VCH GmbH, Weinheim. The retraction has been agreed upon following an investigation into concerns raised by National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST), and also requested by all authors due to image falsification and fabrication in electron microscopy images. In Figure 2a and 2f, where the first author falsified TEM images of irrelevant nanotubes that were developed by the authors in other studies; in Figures 2b and 2c, where the first author carelessly placed incorrect scale bars and scale values; all affecting the interpretation of the data and research results presented.
