Abstract: An ion source includes a cathode to emit electrons, a cathode grid downstream of the cathode, a reflector electrode downstream of the cathode grid, reflector grid radially inward of the reflector electrode, and an extractor electrode downstream of the reflector electrode, the extractor electrode and cathode grid defining an ionization region therebetween. The cathode and the cathode grid have a first voltage difference such the electrons are accelerated through the cathode grid and into the ionization region on a trajectory toward the extractor electrode. The reflector grid and the extractor electrode have a second voltage difference less than the first voltage difference such that the electrons slow as they near the extractor electrode and are repelled on a trajectory toward the reflector electrode. The reflector electrode has a negative potential such that the electrons are repelled away from the reflector electrode and into the ionization region.

Abstract: A apparatus may include a power supply to receive a first voltage potential and output a second voltage potential that is greater than the first voltage potential and a cathode emitter to emit ions in response to application of the second voltage potential. The apparatus may also include a step down transformer to receive the second voltage potential and output a third voltage potential that is less than the second voltage potential. The apparatus may also include a heating element to, in response to application of the third voltage potential, heat the cathode emitter and lower a work function of the cathode emitter.

Abstract: A downhole tool may include a voltage multiplier within a housing. The voltage multiplier may transform input power to the downhole tool from a first voltage to a second voltage higher than the first. The downhole tool may also include multiple shielding rings surrounding at least the voltage multiplier to reduce electric field stresses within the downhole tool. Additionally, the downhole tool may include an insulator located between the shielding rings and the housing.

Abstract: A radiation generator may include an elongate generator housing having a proximal end and a distal end, a target electrode within the elongate generator housing at the distal end thereof, a charged particle source within the elongate generator housing at the proximal end thereof to direct charged particles at the target electrode. A plurality of accelerator electrodes may be spaced apart within the elongate generator housing between the target electrode and the charged particle source to define a charged particle accelerator section. Each accelerator electrode may include an annular portion having a first opening therein, and a frustoconical portion having a base coupled to the first opening of the annular portion and having a second opening so that charged particles from the charged particle source pass through the first and second openings to reach the target electrode.

Abstract: A radiation generator includes an insulator, with an ion source carried within the insulator and configured to generate ions and indirectly generate undesirable particles. An extractor electrode is carried within the insulator downstream of the ion source and has a first potential. An intermediate electrode is carried within the insulator downstream of the extractor electrode at a ground potential and is shaped to capture the undesirable conductive particles. In addition, a suppressor electrode is carried within the insulator downstream of the intermediate electrode and has a second potential opposite in sign to the first potential. A target is carried within the insulator downstream of the suppressor electrode. The extractor electrode and the suppressor electrode have a voltage therebetween such that an electric field generated in the insulator accelerates the ions generated by the ion source toward the target.

Abstract: A downhole tool may include a high-voltage power supply disposed within a housing to transform input power to the downhole tool from a first voltage to a second voltage greater than the first voltage. The high-voltage power supply may include an array of capacitors, which may include multiple rows of capacitors. The rows of capacitors may be parallel with a symmetric cross section as viewed from an end of the array of capacitors. The high-voltage power supply may also include diodes electrically coupled to the array of capacitors.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a downhole tool that includes a first photon flux detector disposed at a first radial position about a longitudinal axis of the downhole tool that measures a first signal indicative of an x-ray flux of the x-ray photons. The downhole tool also includes a second photon flux detector disposed at a second radial position about the longitudinal axis of the downhole tool that measures a second signal indicative of the x-ray flux of the x-ray photons. Further, the downhole tool includes a controller communicatively coupled to the first photon flux detector and the second photon flux detector that determines a condition associated with the electron beam based at least in part on a relative x-ray flux from the first photon flux detector and the second photon flux detector.
