Abstract
We present the status of our new experiment to lasercool linear chains of 172Yb + and 115In + ions for an optical clock based on the 1S 0- 3P 0 transition in 115In +. We successfully have trapped and laser-cooled Coulomb crystals of 172Yb + ions in our new scalable ion trap that are used to characterize the trap and to sympathetically cool 115In + ions. We could demonstrate an area of more than 65 μm, where the fractional frequency shifts due to time dilation are below 10 -18 for both ions.
