Conclusions: Two prototypes of bilayer graphenes, AA- and AB-stacking bilayer graphenes, exhibit different Landau level spectra, which reflect the fact that the magneto-electronic properties strongly depend on the stacking configurations. The Landau wave functions of AA- and AB-stacking bilayer graphenes show dissimilar features and the dissimilarities are reflected in the magneto-optical absorption spectra, such as the distinct selection rules and different field-dependent absorption frequencies. 33/33
