Experiment and Results of Mode Conversion Electron Heating Qin chengming， Zhang xinjun Ding bojiang， Zhao yanping 1. Background In ion cyclotron range of frequencies (ICRF) experiments, the fast magnetosonic wave (fast wave) launched by an rf (radio frequency) antenna in a multiple-species tokamak plasma can be mode converted (MC) to the ion Bernstein wave (IBW) and ion cyclotron wave (ICW) [1] ,which directly damps on electrons. The MC process has been a useful tool in plasma control partly owing to its localized feature. It has been shown to generate plasma current, modify current profile,
