## Abstract

It has been shown in recent years that incoherent pumping through multiple atomic levels provides a mechanism for the production of highly anti-bunched light, and that as the number of incoherent steps is increased the light becomes increasingly regular. We show that in a resonance fluorescence situation, a multi-level atom may be multiply coherently driven so that the fluorescent light is highly anti-bunched. We show that as the number of coherently driven levels is increased, the spontaneous emissions may be made increasingly more regular. We present a systematic method for designing the level structure and driving required to produce highly anti-bunched light in this manner for an arbitrary even number of levels.

## Recorded benchmark results

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.
