Abstract

A principal possibility for forming quantum squeezed states for nonlinear dynamic scattering (diffraction) of light in a spatially periodic medium is established. The fundamental physical cause of their appearance is the energy exchange and the competition between two phase-conjugated waves. Such behavior is also transferred to the fluctuations, and so their pumping-over between different modes results in suppression (or enhancement) of the field quadratures and also in super- and/or antibunching effects.
