Abstract
Electrically-conducting polymers are relatively recently discovered materials that possess not only electronic conductivity variable over many orders of magnitude but other properties including ion-transport, junction effects and electrode effects allied to polymeric physical properties. Because of this they are exciting considerable research interest and under investigation for a wide range of applications within the electronics industry. This review concerns basic properties of these materials with respect to significant applications. Recent developments will be addressed and the implications towards further advances are considered. The opportunities for chemical manipulation of these materials, an important aspect of their technology, will be discussed with regard to both processability and functionalisation; the effects so produced will be discussed.
