To obtain organised mono- and multilayers of policonjugated polymers or oligomers by self assembly techniques has recently attracted much attention. This is due to the simplicity of the method and to the fact that no sophisticated apparatus is required. In the present feature the state of the art in this field is discussed including our own research results. A survey on self assembly of thiols, disulfides, and alkylsilanes on gold or glass surfaces is presented as well as self assembly of ferrocenylalkyl-substituted heterocycle adsorbates on ITO surfaces. Carboxyalkyl bithiophenes and terthiophenes, in which the oligothiophene tail is either perpendicularly or linearly linked to the tethering carboxyalkyl chain form stable monolayers on ITO electrodes and are anodically oxidised to produce polymer layers or to couple with oligothiophenes in solution, depending on the structure. As for multilayers, an introductory survey on the self assembly technique usually employed is given. Several examples of multilayers constituted of electroconductive polymers are discussed. Finally our recent results concerning different multilayers from polythiophenes bearing anionic and cationic moieties are discussed.
