The in-plane resistivityand thermal conductivityof the FeAs-based superconductorsingle crystal were measured down to 50 mK. We observe non-Fermi-liquid behaviorat, and the development of a Fermi liquid state withwhen further increasing the field. This suggests a field-induced quantum critical point, occurring at the superconducting upper critical field. In zero field, there is a large residual linear term, and the field dependence ofmimics that in-wave cuprate superconductors. This indicates that the superconducting gaps inhave nodes, likely-wave symmetry. Such a nodal superconductivity is attributed to the antiferromagnetic spin fluctuations near the quantum critical point.
