Superconducting and nonsuperconducting phases in the Ba/sub 1/minus//ital x//K/sub /ital x//BiO/sub 3/ system have been studied at temperatures down to 4 K by use of Raman spectroscopy. For superconducting Ba/sub 0.6/K/sub 0.4/BiO/sub 3/, an optical phonon at 348 cm/sup /minus/1/ (43 meV) has the distinctive Fano line shape indicative of significant coupling between the phonon and a broad electronic continuum. For nonsuperconducting Ba/sub 0.8/K/sub 0.2/BiO/sub 3/, the same phonon is not observed to be coupled to the electronic states. Assignment ofthe 348-cm/sup /minus/1/ peak to specific normal modes of vibration is discussed as is the similarity to the phonon at 340 cm/sup /minus/1/ in YBa/sub 2/Cu/sub 3/O/sub 7/ that also exhibit selectron-phonon coupling.
