In the present work, the effects of Fe doping and vacancies on the electronic, magnetic and optical properties of graphene are studied by density functional theory based calculations. The conductive behavior is revealed for the various defected graphene by means of electronic density of states. However, defected structures show different magnetic and optical properties compared to those of pure one. The ferromagnetic phase is the most probable phase by substituting Fe atoms and vacancies at AA sublattice of graphene. The optical properties of impure graphene differ from pure graphene under illumination with parallel polarization of electric field, whereas for perpendicular polarization it remains unchanged. In presence of defect and under parallel polarization of light, the static dielectric constant rises strongly and the maximum peak of Im epsilon(omega) shows red shift relative to pure graphene. Moreover, the maximum absorption peak gets broaden in the visible to infrared region at the same condition and the magnitude and related energy of peaks shift to higher value in the EELS spectra. Furthermore, the results show that the maximum values of refractive index and reflectivity spectra increase rapidly and represent the red and blue shifts; respectively. Generally; substituting the C atom with Fe has more effect on magnetic and optical properties relative to the C vacancies.
