“…Therefore, the weak probe field can be amplified due to the additional mechanical driving field, which can be explained by the interference effect as follows. In the simultaneous presence of a strong control field, a weak probe field, and a weak coherent mechanical driving field, the energy level of the system can form a closed-loop transition structure, giving rise to the phase-dependent optical response properties [69][70][71][72][73][74][75]. At 1 = 0, constructive interference between t 1 and the first term in t 2 results in the amplification of the probe field [75].…”

“…In addition, more complex interference effect occurs in optomechanical systems if the mechanical oscillator can be excited directly, which results in more interesting response property [69][70][71][72][73][74][75][76]. Zhai et al proposed that mechanical driving field can serve as a switch of photon blockade and photon-induced tunneling [77].…”

We explore the optical response of a multimode optomechanical system with quadratic coupling to a weak probe field, where the cavity is driven by a strong control field and the two movable membranes are, respectively, excited by weak coherent mechanical driving fields. We study the two cases that the two movable membranes are degenerate and nondegenerate. For the degenerate case, it is shown that only one transparency window occurs and the transition between optomechanically induced transparency and Fano resonance can be realized by tuning the cavity-control field detuning. For the nondegenerate case, two transparency windows are observed and the absorption spectrum can switch between a single Fano resonance and double Fano resonances. Furthermore, we show that the output probe field can be greatly amplified or completely suppressed due to the complex interference effect by tuning the amplitude and phase of the mechanical driving fields. Our results can be extended to the optomechanical system with multiple membranes, which enables us to control the light propagation more flexibly.

“…The sharp peak and asymmetric Fano line shape indicate that our platform has great potential in the application of highprecision measurement of weak microwave fields [74,75]. Our two-tone pump scheme and phase-tunable interference can also be accomplished in other coupled-resonator systems, such as optomechanical resonators, which explores effects of mechanical pump on light transmission [76][77][78][79][80][81][82][83][84], and even in circuit-QED systems, in which photon transmission can be controlled through a circuit-QED system [85][86][87][88].…”

We study the phase-controlled transmission properties in a compound system consisting of a threedimensional copper cavity and an yttrium-iron-garnet (YIG) sphere. By tuning the relative phase of the magnon pumping and cavity-probe tones, constructive and destructive interferences occur periodically, which strongly modify both the cavity-field transmission spectra and the group delay of light. Moreover, the tunable amplitude ratio between pump-probe tones allows us to further improve the signal absorption or amplification, accompanied by either significantly enhanced optical advance or delay. Both the phase and amplitude ratio can be used to realize in situ tunable and switchable fast-slow light. The tunable phase and amplitude ratio lead to the zero reflection of the transmitted light and an abrupt fast-slow light transition. Our results confirm that direct magnon pumping through the coupling loops provides a versatile route to achieve controllable signal transmission, storage, and communication, which can be further expanded to the quantum regime, realizing coherent-state processing or quantum-limited precise measurements.

We study the phase controlled transmission properties in a compound system consisting of a 3D copper cavity and an yttrium iron garnet (YIG) sphere. By tuning the relative phase of the magnon pumping and cavity probe tones, constructive and destructive interferences occur periodically, which strongly modify both the cavity field transmission spectra and the group delay of light. Moreover, the tunable amplitude ratio between pump-probe tones allows us to further improve the signal absorption or amplification, accompanied by either significantly enhanced optical advance or delay. Both the phase and amplitude-ratio can be used to realize in-situ tunable and switchable fast-slow light. The tunable phase and amplitude-ratio lead to the zero reflection of the transmitted light and an abrupt fast-slow light transition. Our results confirm that direct magnon pumping through the coupling loops provides a versatile route to achieve controllable signal transmission, storage, and communication, which can be further expanded to the quantum regime, realizing coherent-state processing or quantum-limited precise measurements.
