The new class of FeAs based high-T_c superconductors exhibits a complex interplay between electronic, magnetic and lattice degrees of freedom. Here we report on electron-phonon coupling in EuFe₂As₂ and BaCo_0.15Fe_1.85As₂ investigated by femtosecond (fs) time- and angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (trARPES). The samples were excited by 1.5 eV fs laser pulses, at 100 K equilibrium temperature. The temporal evolution of their electronic band structure after photoexcitation was probed by time-delayed 6 eV fs pulses. In this way a periodic oscillation of the electronic structure in the vicinity of the Fermi level was observed, which is attributed to coherent phonon modes and electron phonon-coupling. Comparison with Raman scattering results[1] allows to assign the mode with the highest frequency to the A_1g mode, which modifies the Fe-As distance and could be involved with the mechanism leading to superconductivity in these materials.
