Abstract

We discuss the Fano resonance and amplification in a quadratically coupled optomechanical system with a nonlinear Kerr medium. We find that effective cavity detuning and the strength of the Kerr nonlinearity lead to the appearance of the Fano resonance in the output probe field at room temperature, respectively. We show that the Kerr nonlinearity causes the asymmetric line shape to appear in the intensities of the output Stokes field and the second-order upper sideband generation. We also show that the Kerr nonlinearity can amplify the intensities of the output Stokes field and the second-order upper sideband generation, and the amplification factor is related to the strength of the Kerr nonlinearity. The findings of this study have potential applications in optical switching and frequency conversion.
