Abstract:
The present invention provides an X-ray generating tube including a transmission target having a minute focal spot. The X-ray generating tube includes a transmission target having a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, the first surface being irradiated with an electron beam, and the target radiating X-rays from the second surface; an electron emitting source emitting the electron beam in such a manner that the electron beam obliquely enters the first surface; and a tubular forward shield member located at the second surface side of the target to define an extraction angle of an extracted X-ray beam. The forward shield member is disposed such that a central axis of the electron beam and a central axis of the X-ray beam whose extraction angle is defined are located at the same side with respect to a virtual normal plane perpendicular to the first surface and a projection central axis that is a projection of the central axis of the electron beam to the first surface.
Abstract:
Provided are a radiation discharge target and a radiation emission device whereby adhesion of a layered radiation target is stabilized, output fluctuations associated with operating temperature histories are alleviated, and a stable radiation emission characteristic is present. This radiation target comprises a support substrate, a target layer which emits radiation by illumination with an electron beam, and an intermediate layer which is located between the support substrate and the target layer. The intermediate layer is 1µm or less in thickness and has titanium as a primary constituent. At least a portion of the titanium exhibits a &bgr; phase at 400°C or below.
Abstract:
An electron beam emitting device having a first plate provided with electron emitting elements (15) and an electrode (8) opposed to the first plate and given a potential for accelerating electrons emitted from the electron emitting elements (15). A potential regulating part (9) is provided on the electrode (8) side of the first plate, a first potential regulating part that constitutes the potential regulating part (9) is provided within the region of the potential regulating part (9) to which the electrode (8) is projected. The potential regulating part is further defined In a range of 0.83d from the end of the projection region in any direction parallel to the first plate, where d is the distance between the electrode (8) and the potential regulating section (9). Thereby, the path of electrons is stabilized, and a good image can be formed without displacement of light-emission position.

In airtight container manufacturing method including sealing a through-hole by a cover, it secures sealing performance and restrains sealant from flowing into the through-hole. The method comprises: (a) exhausting inside of a container (1) through the through-hole (5); (b) arranging a spacer (32) along periphery of the through-hole on an outer surface of the container the inside of which has been exhausted; (c) arranging a plate (8) so that the spacer and the through-hole are covered by the plate and gap is formed along a side surface of the spacer between the plate and the container outer surface; and (d) arranging the cover (13) to cover the plate and bonding the cover and the container outer surface via sealant (12) positioned between the cover and the container outer surface, wherein the sealing includes hardening the sealant after deforming the sealant as pressing the plate by the cover so that the gap is infilled with the sealant.
Abstract:
A chiral smectic liquid crystal device with a good planar homogeneity in a layer normal direction can be constituted by disposing a chiral smectic liquid crystal having no cholesteric phase between a pair of substrates having mutually different characters, particularly in terms of Iso - SmA phase transition temperature. The liquid crystal may preferably have a layer spacing-changing characteristic such that it provides a layer spacing dA at a first transition point where the layer spacing of the liquid crystal begins to decrease on temperature decrease in the vicinity of a transition temperature from SmA phase to SmC* phase and a layer spacing dmin at a second transition point where the layer spacing of the liquid crystal begins to increase on further temperature decrease from the first transition point, satisfying 0.96
