We report a resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) study of charge excitations in the electron-doped high-$$T_{c}$$ superconductor Nd$$_{1.85}$$Ce$$_{0.15}$$CuO$$_4$$. The intraband and interband excitations across the Fermi energy are separated for the first time by tuning the experimental conditions properly to measure charge excitations at low energy. A dispersion relation with $${mathbf q}$$-dependent width emerges clearly in the intraband excitation, while the intensity of the interband excitation is concentrated around 2 eV near the zone center. The experimental results are consistent with theoretical calculation of the RIXS spectra based on the Hubbard model.
