| Title: |
Physics, miniature devices, stylus trap |
| Description: |
The NIST "stylus trap" can hold a single ion (electrically charged atom) above any of the three sets of concentric cylinders on the centerline. The device could be used as a stylus with a single atom "tip" for sensing very small forces or an interface for efficient transfer of individual light particles for quantum communications.
*PHY, ion trap, stylus, miniature device
