Dr Coleman's main area of research is the study of Carbon nanotubes. These nanoscale cylinders, just a millionth of a millimeter wide but up to millimeters in length are more conductive than copper and many times stronger than steel. To harness these properties, Coleman's work focuses on mixing nanotubes with plastics to create new, functional composite materials. This work has resulted in electrically conductive plastics and lightweight composites with the strength of steel.

Rabe). He was permanent research scientist at Istituto per la Sintesi Organica e la Fotoreattività of the Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche of Bologna from 2001 til 2008, and Visiting Professor at ISIS from 2003 til 2008.
He has published over 200 papers on applications of scanning probe microscopies beyond imaging, hierarchical self-assembly of hybrid architectures at surfaces, supramolecular electronics, and the fabrication of organic- and graphene-based nanodevices.
He is using the supramolecular chemistry approach in order to generate ordered 1D, 2D and 3D architectures at surfaces and interfaces, with the ultimate goal of controlling an improving the properties of electronic devices.
He exploited supramolecular scaffolds based on H-bonding and metal-ligandinteractions to control the patterning of functional groups in two-dimensions. He has fabricated the first dynamer operating at the solid-liquid interface which were monitored on the sub-molecular scale by means of Scanning Tunneling Microscopy.
At University of Strasbourg he showed that combining organic semiconductors with photochromic systems it is possible to fabricate optically switchable field-effect transistor as a first step towards multifunctional devices. He is exploiting supramolecular methods to generate graphene based materials with tunable properties. His current research is focused on the architecture vs function relationship in supramolecular and graphene based materials for applications in (opto)electronics and materials science.
