Spatial distributions of the electrostatic field and the Stark trapping potential for ND3 molecules in the x , y , and z directions for different disk radius R 0 when d = 20 mm, r 0 = 1.5 mm, t = 2 mm, and U = 10 kV, and for the difference distance d between the two disk centers when R 0 = 10 mm, r 0 = 1.5 mm, t = 2 mm, and U = 10 kV. Here panels (a) and (c) are the results in the x  ( z ) direction, and panels (b) and (d) are ones in the y direction.
