We investigate the squeezed back-to-back correlations (BBC) of ϕϕ, caused by the mass modification of the particles in the source medium, in the heavy-ion collisions of Au+Au and d+Au at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) energies. The BBC functions are calculated using the modified masses extracted from experimental data and the source space-time distributions provided by the viscous hydrodynamic code VISH2+1. Our investigations indicate that the BBC of ϕϕ may perhaps be observed in the collisions of d+Au and the peripheral collisions of Au+Au at the RHIC. We suggest to measure the BBC experimentally for understanding the mass modifications of the ϕ meson in the collisions.
