Abstract Chemical engineering tailors functional materials to meet the demands of physical and chemical properties, accelerating materials discovery and design in a multidisciplinary field. However, stereotyped synthetic paradigms in physical and chemical approaches obstruct the effective integration of multiple advantages of respective materials exploration methods. Solid state reaction is often considered separately with wet chemistry synthesis route, such as film growth using physical vapor deposition and hydrothermal methods. Here, the controlled growth of FeSe thin films by physical deposition techniques followed by the chemical engineering to create heterogenous interface in FeSe films via a solution‐based environment is demonstrated. The two‐step route allows an expanded crystal structure and enhanced superconducting transition temperature from 3.6 to 38 K, providing a new strategy to design functional hybrid materials.
