The first observation of mode conversion of whistler waves to lower hybrid waves at a density striation has been made in a laboratory plasma. The observed lower hybrid wavelength is consistent with that predicted by linear mode coupling. The lower hybrid waves have amplitudes up to 20% of the incident whistler waves.
