In this paper, the characteristics of the fundamental mode of surface plasmons in a circular cylindrical three-layer graphene waveguide structure are investigated. By using Maxwell equations in the cylindrical coordinate system and applying the boundary conditions, the dispersion relation has been derived for the fundamental mode. In the proposed model, along with the electric field distribution in the waveguide, the effect of different model parameters on the dispersion curve has also been investigated. For instance, the effect of chemical potential, temperature and the separation between the first-second and second-third layers of the graphene has been shown and discussed in detail. Furthermore, the effect of chemical potential, temperature and separation between the first-second and second-third layers of the graphene on the propagation length and phase speed is also discussed.
