Popis: Terahertz and infrared spectra of the conductivity, σ(ν), and dielectric constant, ɛ(ν), of a Ba(Fe0.9Co0.1)2As2 film (T c = 20 K) have been analyzed together with previous specific-heat and angular resolved photoelectron spectroscopy data. It has been shown that the spectra σ(ν) and ɛ(ν) of Ba(Fe0.9Co0.1)2As2 in the superconducting phase at T = 5 K, as well as the magnetic field penetration depth, can be described well using the standard Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) model with an additive contribution of electron and hole bands. It has been found that the measured temperature dependence of the magnetic field penetration depth in a wide temperature range 5 K < T < T c can be described only with the introduction of interband pairing interaction. The coupling constant of electron and hole bands, λ1, 2 = 0.1, as well as the temperature dependences of superconducting gaps in the electron and hole subsystems, has been determined using the model of two-band superconductivity developed earlier for MgB2.
