34. The most important overall feature of crystallized mixed-species ion ensembles is a radial separation of the species due to their different effective trap potential (pseudopotential) strength. The effective trap potential Utrap for a particular ion species with charge Q and mass m scales as Q2 /m. In addition, for two ion species with charges Q1 and Q2, the interspecies intercation is ∼ Q1 Q2. Thus, for equal charge of all ions, the total potential energy will usually be minimized if the lighter ions are closer to the axis. A radial gap between the species develops. For arbitrary charge ratio, in the limit of cylindrical symmetry (very prolate ensembles), the ratio of outer radius r1 of the lower mass-to-charge ratio (say m1 / Q1) ensemble and inner radius r2 of the higher mass-to-charge ratio (say m2 / Q2) ensemble is given by r1 / r2 = (Q2 m1 / Q1 m2) 1/2 [D.
