Optomechanically Induced Transparency in the Single-Photon Strong Coupling Regime

Abstract

Optomechanical systems have been shown both theoretically and experimentally to exhibit an analogon to atomic electromagnetically induced transparency, with sharp transmission features that are controlled by a second laser beam. Here we investigate these effects in the regime where single photons and phonons interact strongly. We demonstrate that pulsed transistor-like switching of transmission still works even in this regime. We show that optomechanically induced transparency at the second mechanical sideband could be a sensitive tool to see first indications of this challenging regime even at moderate coupling strengths.
