A monolayer graphene (GR) film on a lithium fluoride substrate was prepared to measure the optical properties of graphene in the far-UV region. The photoabsorption of the GR/LiF sample was universal in the spectral region of 105-350 nm, with an excitonic band near 130 nm and the absorbance of the GR...
