▎ 摘　　要

A remarkable manifestation of the quantum character of electrons in matter is offered by graphene, a single atomic layer of graphite. Unlike conventional solids where electrons are described with the Schrodinger equation, electronic excitations in graphene are governed by the Dirac hamiltonian(1). Some of the intriguing electronic properties of graphene, such as massless Dirac quasiparticles with linear energy - momentum dispersion, have been confirmed by recent observations(2-5). Here, we report an infrared spectromicroscopy study of charge dynamics in graphene integrated in gated devices. Our measurements verify the expected characteristics of graphene and, owing to the previously unattainable accuracy of infrared experiments, also uncover significant departures of the quasiparticle dynamics from predictions made for Dirac fermions in idealized, freestanding graphene. Several observations reported here indicate the relevance of many-body interactions to the electromagnetic response of graphene.
