Within the framework of this method, optical properties such as reflection, transmission and absorption for single-, double- and multi-layer graphene are studied. We also apply the method to structures consisting of periodically arranged graphene layers, revealing well-defined photonic band structures and even photonic bandgaps. Finally, we discuss graphene plasmons and introduce a simple way to tune the plasmon dispersion.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2012-12-23T05:35:00.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "transfer matrix method", "revealing well-defined photonic band structures", "simple way", "multi-layer graphene", "non-interacting graphene layers" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "journal": "Journal of Physics Condensed Matter", "year": 2013, "month": "May", "volume": 25, "number": 21, "pages": 215301 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 8, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2013JPCM...25u5301Z" } } }
