Thick-film technology for ultra high vacuum interfaces of micro-structured traps
We adopt thick-film technology to produce ultra high vacuum compatible
interfaces for electrical signals. These interfaces permit voltages of hundreds
of Volts and currents of several Amperes and allow for very compact vacuum
setups, useful in quantum optics in general, and especially for quantum
information and quantum simulations using miniaturized traps for ions or
neutral atoms. Such printed circuits can also be useful as pure in-vacuum
devices. We demonstrate a specific interface, which provides eleven current
feedthroughs, more than 70 dc feedthroughs and a feedthrough for radio
frequencies. We achieve a pressure in the low 1e-11mbar range and demonstrate
the full functionality of the interface by trapping chains of cold ytterbium
ions, which requires all of the signals mentioned above being present. In
addition, a versatile multi-channel device for supplying precise time-dependent
voltages has been developed.Comment: 8 pages, 7 figures added references to recent literature about

Operator space structure of JC*-triples and TROs, I
We embark upon a systematic investigation of operator space structure of JC*-triples via a study of the TROs (ternary rings of operators) they generate. Our approach is to introduce and develop a variety of universal objects, including universal TROs, by which means we are able to describe all possible operator space structures of a JC*-triple. Via the concept of reversibility we obtain characterisations of universal TROs over a wide range of examples. We apply our results to obtain explicit descriptions of operator space structures of Cartan factors regardless of dimensio
