Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Possibility to achieve a unidirectional optical amplifier was theoretically discussed. The optical beam propagates in zigzag manner in a gap between two mirrors having corrugated shapes, resulting in reduction of the propagating speed. The electron beam emitted a electron gun excites the optical beam and amplify it. The interaction between the electron beam and the optical beam was theoretically r analyzed based on the treatment of the density matrix which is a method of the quantum statistics. Conditions getting the amplification and a form of the gain coefficient were obtained. Propagating characteristics in the gap between two mirrors were also analyzed and whose function as a delayed optical waveguide was confirmed. As numerical examples, possibility of several times optical amplification on several mm region with 100KV excitation of the electron beam was shown.
