    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain an electroconductive polymer structure having a high degree of crystallinity and to provide a method for producing the same. SOLUTION: This structure containing a polycrystalline material containing microcrystals of an electroconductive polymer and precursor thereof, contains amorphous materials of the polymer and the precursor thereof in mediating regions among the microcrystals. By adding an additive such as a plasticizer and a diluent to a solution for forming a polycrystalline material, a high degree of crystallinity is obtained by giving a high mobility to the polymer molecules for associating each other and producing the polymer under a condition for forming a crystalline state. The form of the polycrystalline material can be adjusted so as to modify the characteristics of the material such as a degree of crystallinity, a size of the crystalline particles, a glass transition temperature, a thermal expansion coefficient and an electroconductivity. As opposed to a stretched film having an anisotropic electroconductivity, the polycrystalline material attains an isotropic and high electroconductivity without getting stretched.
