Jibiao,
I don't know if there's any easy way to do it with ASE, but if you're
willing to so a small amount of programming, I'd suggest converting the data
to a VTK file format and then visualizing with ParaView.  Do a search or
look on vtk.org for "VTK file formats" and in particular look for the VTI
format.  ParaView is open source and is at paraview.org.  It does a very
nice job of rendering slices through 3D data.
