Fig. 3

A single ion is transported adiabatically in the xz plane (normal to the imaging optical axis). The ion is illuminated for 500 μs at a total of 58 positions, here defined by the ETH Zürich logo (see inset for reference image). The red circle indicates the initial position in which the ion is Doppler-cooled. The ion is moved across a region spanning approximately 40 μm and 75 μm along the x (radial) and z (axial) directions, respectively. The sequence is repeated 172 times to accumulate the image.
