Abstract

In analogy to electromagnetically induced transparency, optomechanically induced transparency was proposed recently in [Science 330, 1520 (2010) [CrossRef]   [CrossRef]  ]. In this Letter, we demonstrate another form of induced transparency enabled by second-order nonlinearity. A practical application of the second-order nonlinearity induced transparency is to measure the second-order nonlinear coefficient. Our scheme might find applications in quantum optics and quantum information processing.
