摘要
We study plasmonic resonances in electrostatically gated graphene nanoribbons on silicon dioxide substrates. Absorption spectra are measured in the mid-far-infrared and reveal multiple peaks, with width-dependent resonant frequencies. We calculate the dielectric function within the random phase approximation and show that the observed spectra can be explained by surface-plasmon-phonon-polariton modes, which arise from coupling of the graphene plasmon to three surface optical phonon modes in silicon dioxide.
