Our QUAD 1-10 rotating wall drive is designed to create a rotating dipole or quadrupole electrical field inside a Penning Ion Trap.
The resulting electrodynamical “rotating wall” enables fast compression of big ion clouds after loaded into the trap. It can handle a wide range of ion/plasma rotation frequencies.
Key Features
- completely linear operating device
- provides 4x 90°-phase shifted outputs, optionally 6x 60°, 8x 45°
- voltage range 0 to 10 Vpp
- frequency range 80 kHz to 10 MHz
The QUAD 1-5 rotating wall drive is a precision wideband phase shifter in combination with output amplifiers, dedicated for compression of non-neutral plasmas in ion traps. It provides 4 phase shifted outputs with up to 20 Vpp Amplitude. It operates in a wide frequency range from 100 kHz to 5 MHz. Small mismatches of amplitude and phase are provided over the entire frequency range.
