Abstract
An ion trap () includes a first electrode pair () and a second electrode pair (), each including a first conductive member () and a second conductive member () and facing each other so that the first conductive member () of the first electrode pair () is on a common plane with the second conductive member () of the second electrode pair () and so that the second conductive member () of the first electrode pair () is on a common plane with the first conductive member () of the second electrode pair (), a gap () therebetween. A signal generator () generates a periodic signal () applied to the first conductive members (). A phase shifter () generates a second periodic signal () that is 180 out of phase therewith applied to the second conductive members (). Ions are trapped by a resulting electric field.
