N-ITB has been observed for EC heated NBI plasma. The improved confinement region for electrons is expanded compared to that of the previous N-ITB plasma heated by only ECH. Moreover, the ion temperature is found to be increased simultaneously by about two to three times (T_i(0)~400-500eV) with steep gradient region at rho~0.6. From the measurement of the averaged peak energy intensity using the soft X-ray CCD camera it is confirmed that the impurity confinement is also improved with N-ITB. The radial electric field is observed to bifurcate into electron root (E_r~15kV/m) and rather large electric field shear (dE_r/dr~300kV/m^2) is produced in the layer between ion and electron root."}, title = {Increased Understanding of Neoclassical Internal Transport Barrier on CHS}, year = {2002} }
