Numerical analysis of surface plasmon behaviour is performed on graphene surface supported on different dielectric medium and with varying graphene chemical potential. The dielectric medium of graphene is varied from free standing graphene to rigid SiO2 wafer substrate to flexible PMMA polymer for diverse graphene plasmonics applications. The dispersion relation, propagation length and penetration depth of graphene surface plasmons are computed and analysed for the different dielectrics. The results show that graphene plasmonic behaviour in the various dielectrics highly depends on its chemical potential, the excitation input frequencies and produces surface plasmons with high field localization and low losses. This study of plasmonic behaviour on flexible dielectric opens up application of graphene plasmonics in the field of flexible optoelectronics.
