Cathode Ray Tube (X-Ray)

Cathode Ray Tube (X-Ray)
  • Tube Type: High-vacuum diode tube (Coolidge type) with a heated filament.

  • Anode/Target: Tungsten or Molybdenum target embedded in a cooling block.

  • Cooling Requirement: May require forced air or water cooling of the target anode depending on power rating and duty cycle.

  • Controlled X-ray Generation: Produces a beam of X-rays when powered, enabling experiments and demonstrations on the properties of this high-energy electromagnetic radiation (e.g., penetration, absorption).

  • Heated Filament Cathode: Utilizes thermionic emission from a heated filament to ensure a reliable, high-intensity source of electrons, providing stable and predictable X-ray output.

  • Target Material: The anode features a high-melting-point, high-atomic-number metal target, typically Tungsten, which efficiently converts the kinetic energy of the electrons into X-rays.
