A new non-thermal model on cyclotron line radiation from accreting magnetized neutron stars have been reviewed. Above the magnetic polar cap of accreting neutron stars, the maser instability may be excited by a part of non-thermal electrons, and the radiation with the frequency near electron cyclotron frequency and its second harmonic may be emitted as well. According to this model, the intensity and energy of line radiation will vary with pulsation phase of X-ray pulsars. These phenomen have been observed from Her X-1.
