The discovery of monolayer graphene allows the unprecedented chance for exploring its Goos-Hänchen (GH) shift. However, most of the pronounced GH shifts are achieved in various structures with two-dimensional continuous monolayer graphene. Here, we report on the giant GH shift of reflected wave in monolayer graphene strips by constructing the multilayer dielectric grating structure under them. The observed GH shift here is as high as 7000 times that of the incident wave at the near-infrared frequency region, whose magnification is significantly larger than that of the monolayer graphene ribbon array. We further elucidate that the enhanced GH shift originates from the guided mode resonance of the dielectric grating structure and its magnitude and sign can be manipulated by chemical potential of the monolayer graphene strip. Our work enables a promising route for enhancing and controlling the GH shifts of reflected wave in monolayer graphene strips, which might contribute to their applications in biosensors and detectors.
