Spectroscopic ellipsometry was used to study the dielectric function of a hole-doped Ba0.68K0.32Fe2As2, with a sharp (Δ T< 0.6 K) transition to the SC state below Tc≈ 38.5 K, in the spectral range 0.012 − 6.5 eV at temperatures 7−300 K. The optical conductivity spectra are dominated by a series of interband transitions, which all agree well with the predictions of LDA calculations. Our results provide clear evidence of SC gap formation in the far-infrared optical conductivity spectra, 2ΔSC≈5.5−6.5 kBTc. We find the penetration depth to be 1600 Å in close agreement with the values determined by other techniques. The data also provide detailed information about the evolution of the optical self-energy in the normal and SC states. The frequency and temperature dependencies of the SC gap formation speak for the extended s±−wave pairing symmetry with strong coupling to the intermediate boson mode centered at ≈25meV. Examination of the conductivity in the optical spectral range uncovered superconductivity-induced suppression of interband transitions at energies more than 200ΔSC.
