    Abstract: A logging tool is for determining a property of a subsurface formation having a borehole therein and includes a housing to fit within the borehole. An x-ray generator is carried by the housing and includes at least three extractor electrodes, an electron emitter to emit electrons toward the extractor electrodes, and a target downstream of the extractor electrodes. The extractor electrodes have independently selectable potentials so as to allow direction of an electron beam, formed from the electrons emitted by the electron emitter, toward different longitudinal and lateral regions of the target, the target to emit x-rays into the subsurface formation when struck by the electron beam. A radiation detector is carried by the housing to detect incoming radiation resulting from interactions between the x-rays and the subsurface formation. Processing circuitry is coupled to the radiation detector to determine the property of the subsurface formation based upon detected incoming radiation.

    Abstract: Provided herein is a field emission device. The field emission device includes a cathode which is connected to a negative power supply and emits electrons, an anode which is connected to a positive power supply and includes a target material receiving the electrons emitted from the cathode, and a ground electrode which is formed to face the anode and has an opening through which the electrons emitted from the cathode pass. The ground electrode is grounded so that when an arc discharge occurs due to high voltage operation of the anode, electric charge produced by the arc discharge is emitted to a ground.

    Abstract: An X-ray tube assembly is provided including an emitter configured to emit an electron beam, an emitter focusing electrode, an extraction electrode, and a downstream focusing electrode. The emitter focusing electrode is disposed proximate to the emitter and outward of the emitter in an axial direction. The extraction electrode is disposed downstream of the emitter and the emitter focusing electrode. The extraction electrode has a negative bias voltage setting at which the extraction electrode has a negative bias voltage with respect to the emitter. The downstream focusing electrode is disposed downstream of the extraction electrode, and has a positive bias voltage with respect to the emitter. When the extraction electrode is at the negative bias voltage setting, the electron beam is emitted from an emission area that is smaller than a maximum emission area from which electrons may be emitted.
