Abstract

Nanomaterials of conjugated polymers are found to have superior performance relative to conventional materials due to their much larger exposed surface area. The present paper gives an overview of various recent synthetic approaches involving template free and template oriented techniques suitable for the growth of nanomaterials of conjugated polymers, their merits and application in making nanodevices. The characteristics of nano-structured conducting polymers and polymer nanocomposites, their application in sensors/biosensors and advances made in this field are reviewed.
