Transcoherent States: Optical States for Maximal Generation of Atomic Coherence
Quantum technologies are built on the power of coherent superposition. Atomic coherence is typically generated from optical coherence, most often via Rabi oscillations. However, canonical coherent states of light create imperfect resources; a fully quantized description of “π/2 pulses” shows that th...
