This thesis presents the first isotope-shift measurement of
bound-electron g-factors of highly charged ions and determines the
most precise value of the electron mass in atomic mass units, which
exceeds the value in the literature by a factor of 13. As the
lightest fundamental massive particle, the electron is one of
nature's few central building blocks. A precise knowledge of its
intrinsic properties, such as its mass, is mandatory for the most
accurate tests in physics - the Quantum Electrodynamics tests that
describe one of the four established fundamental interactions in
the universe. The underlying measurement principle combines a
high-precision measurement of the Larmor-to-cyclotron frequency
ratio on a single hydrogen-like carbon ion studied in a Penning
trap with very accurate calculations of the so-called
bound-electron g-factor. For the isotope-shift measurement, the
bound-electron g-factors of two lithium-like calcium isotopes have
been measured with relative uncertainties of a few 10^{-10},
constituting an as yet unrivaled level of precision for
lithium-like ions.
