Our results reveal a possible pseudogap(△_(PG)=(2.4 ± 0.1) me V) below T*≈ 50 K but prior to the opening of a superconducting gap(△SC(0) ≈(4.3 ± 0.1) me V). Measurements under high pump fluence reveal two distinct, coherent phonon oscillations with 1.95 and 5.51 THz frequencies, respectively. The high-frequency A1 g(2) mode corresponds to the c-axis polarized vibrations of Fe As planes with a nominal electron-phonon coupling constant λA1 g(2)= 0.194 ± 0.02.Our findings suggest that the pseudogap is likely a precursor of superconductivity, and the electron-phonon coupling may play an essential role in the superconducting pairing in KCa_(2)Fe_(4)A_(s4)F_(2).展开更多
