The main experimental properties with the new antenna have been demonstrated by showing the dependence of current drive efficiency and particle confinement time on phase difference between adjacent waveguides of the antenna. A few preliminary analyses about the experimental results are also discussed in the paper.展开更多

It was found that the spectral gap between the wave and the electrons in the outer region was bridged by the additional wave with a higher N// spectrum. The results showed that the sawteeth oscillation was suppressed by launching the additional wave, and that the power deposition profile was moved outwards and the current profile was broadened due to the application of the additional wave. Our study indicates that the spectral gap may be bridged by an additional wave with a higher N// spectrum in the outer region.展开更多
