An open-ring ion trap, also referred to as transparent trap was initiallybuilt up to perform $\beta$-$\nu$ correlation experiments with radioactiveions. This trap geometry is also well suited to perform experiments withlaser-cooled ions, serving for the development of a new type of Penning trap,in the framework of the project TRAPSENSOR at the University of Granada. Thegoal of this project is to use a single $^{40}$Ca$^+$ ion as detector forsingle-ion mass spectrometry. Within this project and without any modificationto the initial electrode configuration, it was possible to perform Dopplercooling on $^{40}$Ca$^+$ ions, starting from large clouds and reaching singleion sensitivity. This new feature of the trap might be important also for otherexperiments with ions produced at Radioactive Ion Beam (RIB) facilities. Inthis publication, the trap and the laser system will be described, togetherwith their performance with respect to laser cooling applied to large ionclouds down to a single ion.

Extending the applicability of an open-ring trap to perform experiments with a single laser-cooled ion
