PRLTAO 0031-9007 100, 117401 (2008)] have recently measured the optical conductivity of graphite in the infrared spectral range. The optical sheet conductivity per layer was found to be of the order of πG0/4, but because of the interlayer coupling exhibited a significant variation with photon energy. 10.1103/PhysRevLett.100.117401
