  Precision measurements of the quantum Hall resistance with alternating
current (ac) in the kHz range were performed on epitaxial graphene in order to
assess its suitability as a quantum standard of impedance. The quantum Hall
plateaus measured with alternating current were found to be flat within one
part in 10^7. This is much better than for plain GaAs quantum Hall devices and
shows that the magnetic-flux-dependent capacitive ac losses of the graphene
device are less critical. The observed frequency dependence of about
-8x10^-8/kHz is comparable in absolute value to the positive frequency
dependence of plain GaAs devices, but the negative sign is attributed to stray
capacitances which we believe can be minimized by a careful design of the
graphene device. Further improvements thus may lead to a simpler and more
user-friendly quantum standard for both resistance and impedance.
