| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We demonstrated configuration controls of ion chain in liner Paul trap toward an application to optical frequency standards. A configuration of ion chain changes with time in every several second via background gas collisions. These changes can cause significant frequency shifts in the case of high accuracy frequency measurements, so we should control ion chains configuration. In this study, we demonstrated two methods of sorting ion chains. One has been realized by applying amplitude modulation on a cooling laser, another has been realized by reducing an aspect ratio of radial and axial potential. Moreover, we measured In+ clock transition frequency by using the latter sorting technic.
