Impact of lithium wall conditioning and wave-frequency on high density lower hybrid current drive experiment on EAST

A series of dedicated lower hybrid current drive (LHCD) experiments on EAST shows that lithium wall conditioning extends LH current drive and heating up to the line-averaged density of n-e≈4x1019 m−3 for both 2.45 and 4.6 GHz. Current drive at such a high density is crucial for the development of lo...
