Versatile ytterbium ion trap experiment for operation of scalable ion-trap chips with motional heating and transition-frequency measurements
Article on design and operation of an ytterbium ion trap experiment with a setup that can host advanced surface and multilayer ion trap chips. We make a heating rate measurement and provide transition frequency measurements more precise than previously published work, published in Phys. Rev. A (21 Jan. 2011)
