(color online) The case when the coupling strength between the donor and the acceptor is stronger than the detuning, i.e., . To induce a resonant drive strength for the mechanical mode, we set . We plot the cases with and without assistance of the vibration mode (i.e., g = 15 and g = 0). It is clearly shown that, even in the strong coupling case, our model can still increase the efficiency of EET to some extent. The other parameters used here are the same as those in Fig. 1(a).
