    摘要: A field effect electron emitter comprises a segmented emission surface and a control unit. The segmented emission surface has a plurality of field effect emitter needles and a number of segments, each segment having an activatable part emission surface, wherein the plurality of field effect emitter needles are distributed on the activatable part emission surfaces. The control unit is configured to activate various groups with at least one of the number of segments for a simultaneous electron emission from respective activatable part emission surfaces such that coherent and grouped part emission surfaces able to be activated in succession overlap in pairs by at least 25%.

    摘要: A field emission cathode device includes a cathode element having a field emission surface and an adjacent gate electrode clement defining a first gap therebetween. A gate voltage applied to the gate electrode clement causes the field emission surface to emit electrons that are accelerated through the gate electrode element. The gate electrode element is disposed between the cathode element and an anode element. the anode element having an anode voltage applied thereto to attract the electrons emitted through the gate electrode element. A tuning electrode element is disposed between the gate electrode element and the anode element. The tuning electrode element has a tuning voltage applied thereto to decelerate the electrons directed through the gate electrode element and to direct the electrons therethrough toward the anode element. An associated method of forming a field emission cathode device is also provided.

    摘要: Provided is an X-ray tube capable of obtaining a clear X-ray image by reducing unnecessary X-rays radiated from a holder shaft. The X-ray tube includes an electron source 12 for generating an electron beam B, an anode 13 for accelerating the electron beam B and having a hole 13a allowing the electron beam B to pass through, a cylindrical holder shaft 14 forming a passage for allowing the electron beam B to pass through a hole 13a of the anode 13, a magnetic lens 17 arranged around the holder shaft 14 and configured to converge the electron beam B, a target holder 15 connected to the holder shaft 14, a target 16 arranged in the target holder 15 so that the electron beam B collides with the target 16, and an irradiation window 15b arranged in the target holder 15 and configured to extract X-rays generated from the target 15 to the outside. The inner wall of the holder shaft 14 is made of a carbon material to reduce X-rays generated when the electron beam B hits the holder shaft 14.
