We present an accurate expression for σ1 (ω) in a closed form for a multilayer graphene film supported on a finite-thickness transparent substrate. This form takes into account the coherent and incoherent multiple reflections of the system, whereas the traditional method assumes a semi-infinite substrate. The simulated results for graphene sheets with a layer number N ≤ 10 show that no matter what the transparent substrate is, the accuracy to which σ1 (ω) is determined by applying this expression is improved with no systematic error. Moreover, the layer number N can be exactly determined by simply dividing the σ1 (ω) value of N-layer graphene by the corresponding σ1 (ω) of monolayer graphene, where ωp is the peak frequency of the ordinary dielectric function's imaginary part ε1 (ω)of graphene.展开更多
