A transportable Paul-trap for levitation and accurate positioning of micron-scale particles in vacuum for laser-plasma experiments

Abstract: We report on a Paul-trap system with large access angles that allows positioning of fully isolated micrometer-scale particles with micrometer precision as targets in high-intensity laser-plasma interactions. This paper summarizes theoretical and experimental concepts of the apparatus as well as supporting measurements that were performed for the trapping process of single particles.

“…Still, the presented measurements and calculations serve to characterize particle and trap properties sufficiently well for our purpose. Thereby, a reliable, controlled, and stable trapping procedure was established as a basis for the trajectory damping and, ultimately, for laser-plasma experiments [164].…”
