摘要
We have studied multimode four-wavemixing (FWM) in an unresolved sideband cavity optomechanical system. The radiation pressure coupling between the cavity fields and multiple mechanical modes results in the formation of a series of tripod-type energy-level systems, which induce the multimode FWM phenomenon. The FWM mechanism enables remarkable amplification of a weak signal field accompanied by the generation of an FWM field when only a microwatt-level pump field is applied. For proper system parameters, the amplified signal and FWM fields have equal intensity with opposite phases. The gain and frequency response bandwidth of the signal field can be dynamically tuned by varying the pump intensity, optomechanical coupling strength, and additional feedback control. Under certain conditions, the frequency response bandwidth can be very narrow and reaches the level of hertz.
