Suppression of Ion Transport due to Long-Lived Subwavelength Localization by an Optical Lattice

We report the localization of an ion by a one-dimensional optical lattice in the presence of an applied external force. The ion is confined radially by a radio frequency trap and axially by a combined electrostatic and optical-lattice potential. Using a resolved Raman sideband technique, one or seve...
