Setup of a new micro-structured linear Paul trap with integrated solenoids and reduced axial micromotion — •H. Siebeneich, D. Kaufmann, T. Gloger, P. Kaufmann, M. Johanning, and ch. Wunderlich — Department Physik, Universität Siegen, 57068 Siegen, Germany

We present the status of a new 3d segmented ion trap setup with integrated solenoids, in which an improved design allows for a substantial reduction of axial micromotion and for an increased magnetic gradients. Our trap consists of three layers of gold plated alumina, where the segmented outer layers provide the trapping potentials [1], and the middle layer contains solenoids that are used to create a magnetic field gradient [2]. The gradient gives rise to coupling between the ions’ internal and motional states. The trap is mounted on a ceramic chip carrier that, at the same time, acts as an ultra-high vacuum interface, featuring about 100 thick-film printed current and voltage feedthroughs. The thick film interface has been improved by replacing previously used Ag-Pd layers by Au layers which reduced their resistivity by a factor of eight. The previously high resistivity used to be a a bottleneck for achieving high solenoid currents and thus a magnetic gradient. The shape of the solenoids was redesigned, leading to an expected reduction of axial micromotion by four orders of magnitudes. [1] S.A.
