Abstract

A process of squeezed light generation by electron beam in a field of two strong external electromagnetic waves propagating in the counter directions is considered. In such a field the electron bunches are formed. Each bunch can be considered as a simple electron mirror placed in a minimum of an effective potential. The input fluctuations change the position of the minimum, providing a parametric interaction inside the system. The squeezing of the output waves is considered. To obtain a large squeezing coefficient one has to mix with proper phases the electromagnetic waves leaving the system from two opposite directions.
