This article discusses the concept of ion trapping using a mechanical Paul trap, which was first introduced by Nobel laureate Wolfgang Paul in the 1950s. The mechanical Paul trap is a 3D-printed device that can be used to demonstrate and investigate the physical phenomena of ion trapping. The article provides information on the design and construction of the mechanical Paul trap, as well as student investigations that can be conducted using the trap. The investigations focus on topics such as the physical properties of a saddle point and the effects of varying frequency on trapping. The article emphasizes the pedagogical value of the mechanical Paul trap in teaching students about ion trapping and field strength. [Extracted from the article] |
