Optomechanically induced opacity and amplification in a quadratically coupled optomechanical system

摘要

We analyze theoretically the features of the output field of a quadratically coupled optomechanical system, which is driven by a strong coupling field and a weak signal field, and in which the membrane (treated as a mechanical resonator) is excited by a weak coherent driving field with two-phonon resonance. We show that the system exhibits complex quantum coherent and interference effects resulting in transmission of the signal field from opacity to remarkable amplification. We also find that the total phase of the applied fields can significantly adjust the signal field's transmission spectrum. The study of the propagation of the signal field in such a quadratically coupled optomechanical system proves that the proposed device can operate as an optical transistor.
