Abstract:
Techniques for tuning magnetic potential using a variable gap in a parallel dipole line (PDL) trap are provided. In one aspect, a PDL trap is provided. The PDL trap includes: a pair of dipole line magnets separated from one another by a variable gap g; and a diamagnetic object levitating above the dipole line magnets. The dipole line magnets can be separated from one another by at least one spacer, or a variable gap fixture can be used in which the dipole line magnets are affixed to separate mounts for varying the gap g between the dipole line magnets. A bigger trap or track can be built with multiple segments of PDL trap. A method of operating a PDL trap is also provided.

Claim (Index 20):
The method of  claim 15 , wherein the PDL trap further comprises a light source above the dipole line magnets, and at least one photodetector beneath the dipole line magnets, and wherein the at least one photodetector is in line of sight of the light source via the gap g separating the dipole line magnets, the method further comprising the step of:\n determining a position of the diamagnetic object in the PDL trap using the light source and the photodetector.
