摘要:
A radiation source includes a vacuum chamber, means for injecting an optical wave, a cold source for emitting electrons, a power supply, an anode for emitting X-rays, and at least one window through which the X-rays exit. A light source delivers the optical wave, and the cold source includes at least one substrate with a conducting surface and is subjected to an electric field. The cold further includes a photoconductive element in which the current is controlled approximately linearly by the illumination and at least one electron-emitting element, the photoconductive element electrically connected in series between an emitting element and a conducting surface. Current photogenerated in the photoconductive device is equal to that emitted by the emitter or the group of emitters with which it is associated, and the emitted stream of X-rays is approximately linearly dependent on the illumination.

Methods and means for reduced ng the overall diameter of an x-ray tube by recessing the vacuum pumping port stub within the ground plane of the x-ray tube without adversely affecting the electrostatic fields within the vacuum tube itself are provided. In one embodiment, x-ray tubes of smaller diameter, which can be used within the highly confined diameters typically found within the pressure housings of borehole tools are used.

The invention relates to vacuum tubes and especially to electron tubes. To produce the tube, and especially an electron collector comprising several electrodes, the electrodes are produced in the form of blocks of ceramic having a high thermal conductivity. The blocks are electrically conducting (at least on the surface). They are preferably made of an insulating ceramic such as aluminium nitride, and are made conductive over part of their surface. The conductive surface part is preferably formed by a conductive ceramic, preferably based on titanium nitride, or on similar conductive ceramic materials. Thus, increased strength, better heat dissipation and weight reduction are achieved.

摘要:
A frequency tuning device for a microwave tube. The tube has one or more resonant cavities which are tuned with the aid of a movable tuning element for each cavity. Each tuning element has an actuating device and a sensor which detects the position of the tuning element. An electronic control is provided for comparing the position of the tuning element supplied by the sensor with a set position and for delivering a control signal to the actuating device which moves the tuning element to the set position.
