Optoelectrical cooling [1] is possibly the most promising method to produce sub-mK samples of a wide range of polar molecules. Here, we present the experimental realization of a key element of this scheme, a suitable electric trap for molecules. Such a trap must not only provide long lifetimes, but must also provide regions of variable homogeneous electric field to allow the required addressing of transitions between individual rotational M sublevels. In addition to cooling, such a trap might be used for precision Stark spectroscopy of trapped molecules as well as for investigation of cold collisions.
