Electronics & Electrostatics

Trap electrodes, PCB, and the electrostatic field studies behind them — previously scattered across v0/electrodes, v1/electrostatics, v1/kicad, and a standalone electrostatics_conductor_island/ study, now consolidated here since they're one coherent subsystem (the device's electrical/trapping side, as distinct from its photonic side).

  • V0 trap electrodes — early electrode GDS + design notebook.
  • V1 electrostatics (capacitor) — scikit-fem capacitor electrostatics notebook for the v1 electrode stack.
  • V1 PCB (KiCad) — PCBv4 KiCad project for the v1 electronics.
  • Conductor-island E-field study — finite-element E-field study around a conductor island: field lineouts, potential comparison, edge charge density.

This subsystem is used by Gen 0 and Gen 1 device architectures.
