Abstract
In this study, the superconducting gap symmetry of is elucidated through specific heat measurements with one single crystal of . A clear jump is observed at 3.95 K in , suggesting bulk superconductivity. From specific heat measurements, and are obtained as 2.31 and 4.5. These values indicate strong electron-phonon coupling superconductivity. The temperature and magnetic-field dependence of the electronic specific heat suggests that superconductivity is fully gapped. Our handmade system successfully elucidates superconducting gap symmetry of the -based compound with a small single crystal.
