A single-ion trap with minimized ion?environment interactions

Original language description

We present a new single-ion endcap trap for high-precision spectroscopy that has been designed to minimize ion?environment interactions. We describe the design in detail and then characterize the working trap using a single trapped 171Yb+ ion. Excess micromotion has been eliminated to the resolution of the detection method, and the trap exhibits an anomalous phonon heating rate of dn/dt = 24+30 -24 s-1. The thermal properties of the trap structure have also been measured with an effective temperature rise at the ion?s position of T(ion) = 0.14 ? 0.14K. The small perturbations to the ion caused by this trap make it suitable to be used for an optical frequency standard with fractional uncertainties below the 10-18 level.
