(color online) Two ions are trapped in a harmonic potential. One of the two ions is driven by a laser field, and the spontaneously emitted photons to the mirror mode are collected by the photon detector. Then photon current goes through a feedback loop, and then feed back the electrode to cool the ion chain.
