The changes of (a) the number of trapped molecules, (b) the trapping volume, (c) the number density of trapped molecules, and (d) the phase-space density of trapped molecules with the decrease of the voltage applied to the two charged disks from 10 kV to 2 kV during evaporative cooling. The data points are the simulated results, and the solid red lines are the calculated curve from the analytical model of evaporative cooing.
