Tunable optomechanically induced transparency and fast-slow light in a loop-coupled optomechanical system

We theoretically explore the tunability of optomechanically induced transparency(OMIT)phenomenon and fast-slow light effect in a loop-coupled hybrid optomechanical system in which two optical modes are coupled to a common mechanical mode.In the probe output spectrum,we find that the interference phenomena OMIT caused by the optomechanical interactions and the normal mode splitting(NMS)induced by the strong tunnel coupling between the cavities can be observed.We further observe that the tunnel interaction will affect the distance and the heights of the sideband absorption peaks.The results also show that the switch from absorption to amplification can be realized by tuning the driving strength because of the existence of stability condition.Except from modulating the tunnel interaction,the conversion between slow light and fast light also can be achieved by adjusting the optomechanical interaction in the output field.This study may provide a potential application in the fields of high precision measurement and quantum information processing.
