Electron Bernstein wave heating is studied theoretically and experimentally in heliotron configurations. A ray tracing code for ordinary (O)-extraordinary (X)-electron Bernstein (B) and X-B conversion heating has been developed, in which the three-dimensional magnetic field structure is taken into account. In the O-X-B heating, the deposition condition is strongly Doppler-shifted because of the high parallel refractive index caused by the inhomogeneity of the magnetic field. The slow X-B heating is also possible by launching the slow X-mode from the low field side because of the peculiar magnetic field structure. An effective heating has been observed in the helical-axis heliotron device, Heliotron J, when no electromagnetic resonance exists in the core region. The obtained stored energy is comparable with that in the conventional second harmonic ECH. A possible explanation for this effective heating is presented using the slow X-B mode conversion process.
