abstract = "We study the wake effect induced by an external charged particle which moves above various sy1-Al2O3-sy2 composites, where syi (i=1,2) may be vacuum, pristine (undoped) or doped graphene. The polarization functions of graphene sheets are obtained using two approaches within the random phase approximation [1]: an ab initio method and a method based on the massless Dirac fermion approximation. The dynamic response of the layer of Al2O3 (sapphire) is described by a dielectric function consisting of several Lorentzian terms [1]. We evaluate the total electrostatic potential in the plane of the upper graphene sheet (the wake potential). It is shown that in the low velocity limit (below a velocity threshold for the wake given by the Fermi speed of graphene) the charged particle excites only the transverse optical (TO) phonons in the Al2O3 slab and only those phonons contribute to the wake potential. It is also shown that the wake potential is only sensitive on the upper system sy2 such that if sy2 is vacuum then TO phonons give intensive oscillations which are strongly reduced if sy2 is graphene.",
