Biographical / Historical Note
Born and raised in Nagoya, Japan, Dr. Kajita graduated from the Department of Applied Physics, at the University of Tokyo in 1981 and obtained his PhD from the Department of Physics, at the University of Tokyo in 1986. After working at the Institute for Molecular Science, he joined Communications Research Laboratory (CRL) in 1989. In 2004, the CRL was renamed the National Institute of Information and Communications Technology (NICT). In 2009, he was a guest professor at the Université de Provence, Marseille, France.
Summary
This engaging book presents the fundamentals of ion traps and their use in physics, chemistry and their technological applications. Following an overview of the types of traps and their operation, the book explores their key areas of application for the development of new physics, chemistry, or engineering at a level accessible by students.
