In this paper we derive the analytical form of the output field state for a large class of quantum finite-level systems driven by singlephoton input field states using a transfer function approach. Single-photon pulse shaping via coherent feedback is also studied.Analysis and control of quantum finite-level systems driven by single-photon input states201610.1016/j.automatica.2016.02.0202016-06-14
