• Abstract summary: We introduce field states that transform an atom from its ground or excited state to any point on the Bloch sphere without residual atom-field entanglement. The best strong pulses for carrying out rotations by angle $theta$ are are squeezed in photon-number variance by a factor of $rmsinctheta$. We extend these investigations to fields interacting with multiple atoms simultaneously, discovering once again that number squeezing by $tfracpi2$ is optimal for enacting $tfracpi2$ pulses on all of the atoms simultaneously.

• Abstract: Semiclassically, laser pulses can be used to implement arbitrary transformations on atomic systems; quantum mechanically, residual atom-field entanglement spoils this promise. Transcoherent states are field states that fix this problem in the fully quantized regime by generating perfect coherence in an atom initially in its ground or excited state. We extend this fully quantized paradigm in four directions: First, we introduce field states that transform an atom from its ground or excited state to any point on the Bloch sphere without residual atom-field entanglement. The best strong pulses for carrying out rotations by angle $\theta$ are are squeezed in photon-number variance by a factor of $\rm{sinc}\theta$. Next, we investigate implementing rotation gates, showing that the optimal Gaussian field state for enacting a $\theta$ pulse on an atom in an arbitrary, unknown initial state is number squeezed by less: $\rm{sinc}\tfrac{\theta}{2}$. Third, we extend these investigations to fields interacting with multiple atoms simultaneously, discovering once again that number squeezing by $\tfrac{\pi}{2}$ is optimal for enacting $\tfrac{\pi}{2}$ pulses on all of the atoms simultaneously, with small corrections on the order of the ratio of the number of atoms to the average number of photons. Finally, we find field states that best perform arbitrary rotations by $\theta$ through nonlinear interactions involving $m$-photon absorption, where the same optimal squeezing factor is found to be $\rm{sinc}\theta$. Backaction in a wide variety of atom-field interactions can thus be mitigated by squeezing the control fields by optimal amounts.

These states can be found for arbitrarily short times and approach slightly-number-squeezed $tfracpi2$ pulses in the limit of large intensities. These states can be repeatedly used as "quantum catalysts" to successfully generate coherent atomic states with high probability.
