Single-photon strong coupling signatures in optomechanically induced transparency — •Andreas Kronwald1, Max Ludwig1, and Florian Marquardt1,2 — 1Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg, Staudtstr. 7, D-91058 Erlangen, Germany — 2Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light, Günther-Scharowsky-Straße 1/Bau 24, D-91058 Erlangen, Germany
An optomechanical system consists of a laser-driven photonic mode coupled to mechanical motion. Recently, the existence of an optomechanical analog to electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) was shown. The strongly laser-driven optomechanical system becomes fully transparent when probed by a second, weak laser. In contrast to earlier works, we analyze this effect in a regime where light and mechanics interact strongly on the level of single quanta.
