Summary:Recent studies on electropolymerization methods toward one-dimensional conducting polymer structures are summarized in this review. In particular, advanced techniques for templated electropolymerization of aromatic monomers, in which migration of monomers into nanopores of the template is highly enhanced by using electrophoretic effect, are described. For templateless approach, electric field–driven bipolar electropolymerization of 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene monomer is introduced as a strong tool to fabricate the corresponding conducting polymer fibers and films grown in the direction of an applied electric field.
