Sumario:Resonance diffraction in the periodic array of graphene microribbons is theoretically studied following a recent experiment [L. Ju et al., Nature Nanotech. 6, 630 (2011)]. Systematic studies over a wide range of parameters are presented. It is shown that a much richer resonant picturewould be observable for higher relaxation times of charge carriers: More resonances appear and transmission can be totally suppressed. The comparison with the absorption cross-section of a single ribbon shows that the resonant features of the periodic array are associated with leaky plasmonic modes. The longest-wavelength resonance provides the highest visibility of the transmission dip and has the strongest spectral shift and broadeningwith respect to the single ribbon resonance, due to collective effects
