Abstract
A new technique for wall conditioning with a high toroidal magnetic field h as been developed on HT-7 superconducting tokamak by launching ion cyclotro n resonant wave (ICRF) into plasmas. The RF wall conditioning techniques in clude hydrogen removal, isotopic and impurity control, boronization and sil iconization, which have been proved to be very effective and could be routi nely used in daily experiments.
