A microwave atomic clock based on113Cd+ions at Tsinghua University is carried out for seven years. To further improve the performance of the clock, a new experimental setup with dual traps and dual species ions was proposed. To investigate the efficiency of sympathetic cooling and the dynamic process of ions, numerical simulation study of the dual-species ion ensembles by the Molecular-dynamics simulation is applied.
