Abstract
Thermometry of trapped ions is an important diagnostic for quantum computing and atomic clocks. Existing thermometry techniques for trapped ions rely on spectroscopy, which is vulnerable to systematic errors induced by laser cooling dynamics. High resolution imaging of ion fluorescence provides a steady state thermometry technique which is independent of the laser cooling dynamics. To achieve sufficient resolution requires a high numerical aperture imaging system with low aberration.
