▎ 摘  要

The interplay of electron-phonon (el-ph) and electron-electron (el-el) interactions in epitaxial graphene is studied by directly probing its electronic structure. We found a strong coupling of electrons to the soft part of the A(1g) phonon evident by a kink at 150 +/- 15 meV, while the coupling of electrons to another expected phonon E-2g at 195 meV can only be barely detected. The possible role of the el-el interaction to account for the enhanced coupling of electrons to the A(1g) phonon, and the contribution of el-ph interaction to the linear imaginary part of the self-energy at high binding energy are also discussed. Our results reveal the dominant role of the A(1g) phonon in the el-ph interaction in graphene and highlight the important interplay of el-el and el-ph interactions in the self-energy of graphene.
