Gate bias can significantly modify optical transitions over a broad spectral range. Single gate bias shifts the Fermi level of monolayer graphene. Spectra provides information on bandstructure, allowing deduction of VF (slope of the Dirac cone in the bandstructure). Double gate bias tunes the bandgap and shifts the Fermi level of bilayer graphene. Widely gate-tunable bandgap of bilayer graphene could be useful in future device applications. Strong gating effects on optical properties of graphene could be useful in infrared optoelectronic devices.,
