Abstract
The present invention relates to the improvement of X-ray tube and features the carbon nanotube film as cathode electron emitter. The film has carbon nanotube array in the central emitting plane and the grid plate is set in the corresponding position to the film. The grid plate is fixed onto the casing of the cathode combination and conducted with the cathode combination. The carbon nanotube film, the grid plate and the casing of the cathode combination are isolated with insulating gasket. When the X-ray tube is used, one additional voltage Ugk is applied between the grid and the cathode to regulate the tube current. The present invention aims at providing X-ray tube with no special cathode heating power source life, focused emitted electron beam and controlled tube current.
Description
1, technical field:
The present invention relates to the operation principle structural material of existing X spool and the significant improvement of power supply circuits thereof.
2, background technology:
Traditional X spool adopts directly-heated type (tungsten) filament hot cathode, removes all additional gate not of the special-purpose X spool of only a few (cutting off or pulsed operation as capacitor discharge power supply wave rear).Hot cathode needs special power supply, and hear rate is big, working life is limited.In addition, most of constant voltage X spool negative electrodes are in the negative high voltage current potential, and its filament supply need adopt the special-purpose high pressure resistant filament transformer of isolating this negative high voltage, and volume is big, manufacturing cost is high.
Utilize single metal point discharge field to imitate emission principle and make X spool cold cathode, though can overcome above-mentioned shortcoming, the most advanced and sophisticated working life of single metal is shorter, and design can not realize divergent bundle is focused on and the tube current regulation and control to electric field in its pop-up.
Up-to-date material science achievement in research CNT (carbon nano-tube) (CNT) material, have stable field and imitate the emission current characteristic, can be as electronic emission element in the electronic vacuum element under the situation of no filament supply and energy consumption, be successfully applied in the flat-panel screens, replace the heated filament negative electrode, make the display thickness attenuate, energy consumption reduces.
3, summary of the invention:
The invention provides a kind of grid-controlled x-ray tube with cold cathode of carbon nanotube, its purpose is to solve the problem that the heating of X spool negative electrode needs special power supply, and when adopting the metal tip cold cathode negative electrode working life short, can not realize problem to divergent bundle focuses on and aspect such as tube current regulation and control exists.
Technical scheme of the present invention is:
Grid-controlled x-ray tube with cold cathode of carbon nanotube, it includes X spool shell and is arranged on the fit and anode assembly of the interior cathode sets of X spool shell, it is characterized in that: as X spool cathode electronics emitter, the emission area at this diaphragm center is provided with nanometer carbon pipe array by the CNT (carbon nano-tube) diaphragm; There is the conduction lead-out tablet at the back side of CNT (carbon nano-tube) diaphragm, draws outside the X spool shell by cathode wire; The corresponding position of CNT (carbon nano-tube) diaphragm is provided with the grid sheet, and the grid sheet is to be fixed on the cathode combination body case and mutual conduction with it, and grid sheet and cathode combination body case are drawn lead by grid and drawn X spool shell; CNT (carbon nano-tube) diaphragm and grid sheet and cathode combination body case are insulated pad and isolate; The cathode combination body case is shaped as one-level focusing electric field step and secondary focusing electric field step the opposite side of grid sheet.
The grid sheet is made by the sheet metal that has fine mesh, is positioned at CNT (carbon nano-tube) diaphragm relative position and parallel with it, and emission area and shape are corresponding on the area of grid sheet center band mesh part and shape and the CNT (carbon nano-tube) diaphragm.
Draw lead and negative electrode is drawn making alive U between the lead at grid
Gk, Ugk takes from the multiplication of voltage electric capacity of voltage doubling rectifing circuit negative high-voltage end afterbody, provides by resistance or capacitance partial pressure.

Advantage and effect:
Up-to-date material science achievement in research: CNT (carbon nano-tube) (CNT) material, have stable field and imitate the emission current characteristic, can be as electronic emission element in the electronic vacuum element under the situation of no filament supply and energy consumption, be successfully applied in the flat-panel screens, replace the heated filament negative electrode, make the display thickness attenuate, energy consumption reduces.Be used for the CNT material replacing the heated filament negative electrode to be used for the X spool, just broken away from filament power supply and isolating transformer, simplified electronic circuit greatly, reduced cost and volume, its working life has also surpassed the heated filament negative electrode.Yet CNT material cold cathode X spool faces two big main difficult technical: a, produce in batches under the rated tube voltage the conforming control of tube current be difficult to solve, can not accomplish that more a kind of X spool keeps rated tube current under different tube voltages; B, be difficult to realize focusing to divergent bundle; Because CNT material diaphragm emission is far below the hot filament negative electrode, to just can reach rated tube current with big emission area, and the X spool that is used for imaging requires to limit the focus area, this just requires divergent bundle is focused on, and the design of the traditional focus means of X spool (focusing on as the bowl-type negative electrode) focusing electric field requires to contradict with CNT material emission electric field.
The present invention adopts electric field to separate principle, promptly the emitting electrons electric field with the electron beam focusing electric field is separated with grid, thereby realize that emission current can be separately by the emission electric field controls, both can solve the bulk article plumber and do the conforming fine setting of electric current, also can solve an X spool keeps rated tube current under different tube voltages problem; Still can adopt traditional focusing means design focusing electric field, realize focusing CNT material divergent bundle.
