I'm kind of on a budget so am looking for a sturdy but affordable material for this project, which will be around 12" x 6" and about 8" tall.
Thanks. 😎

Wouldn't that depend upon how good of a vacuum could be achieved inside of the container?😉
Peace,

It would also depend on what the atom is. Hydrogen can leak through the smallest gap, and liquid helium can sometimes travel uphill.
A focused far off resonance light field in a vacuum is probably the best container for atoms. A 100w CO2 laser off ebay might do the trick, depending on the kind of atom of course.
If the question is indeed veered towards an Atom processor board, a box made of MDF or Birch multiplex lined with copper foil could work. Or some box from Hammond, they have a wide variety of cases and boxes from cheap to expensive. You often can even choose between metric and imperial screws.

Whew! I am so happy someone clarified the original question. I was a bit distraught for a while. Regards
Thx for the advice!
Yes this is for multiple atoms.
The laser solution is interesting but need the box to be non-powered for reliability reasons, though I would make an exception for something like a Slaver stasis field which would be quite acceptable.

That reminds me - I gotta check out the local library to see if they have any Niven available.........
you could build it from neutrinos. That way, if any atom tries to get out, the neutrinos can preemptively close the gap.
Haven't you heard? You only need to round neutrinos up tomorrow if you need them today.
Extrapolating from that, you obviously only need to THINK about needing them (since this is tantamount to needing them tomorrow), and they will be there. Today.
No Scrinth required - that's soooo last century technology
QED
Of course, they may or may not have a cat with them...

Scrinth first noted in future, just after Louis Wu's 200th birthday.
I heard the SPCA may or may not proscecute Shrodinger...
Silly season coming on...
