Abstract: An electron gun device, in particular for an X-ray tube, includes a metallic first electrode having a first electrode contact surface; a metallic second electrode having a second electrode contact surface; and a ring-shaped ceramic insulator having a first insulator contact surface on a first side with respect to an axial direction of the insulator and a second insulator contact surface on an opposite second side with respect to the axial direction. In an assembled state, the first insulator contact surface faces the first electrode contact surface and is connected to the first electrode contact surface via a first brazing joint, and the second insulator contact surface faces the second electrode contact surface and is connected to the second electrode contact surface via a second brazing joint.

Abstract: An x-ray tube can include an x-ray window sealed to a mount. An inner-collimator can be adjacent to, but not sealed to, the x-ray window. The inner-collimator can be sandwiched between the x-ray window and an insulating-layer. The insulating-layer can span an inner-collimator-aperture of the inner-collimator, forming an isolated cavity at the inner-collimator-aperture. Walls of the cavity can include the x-ray window, the inner-collimator, and the insulating-layer. The x-ray tube can have a light weight, can block x-rays in undesirable directions, and can shape the x-ray beam.

Abstract: An x-ray generating unit includes an x-ray tube that is substantially transparent to x-rays. A cathode is within the x-ray tube and defines a plurality of spaced apart cavities. An anode includes a material that emits x-rays when impacted by electrons. A plurality of filaments is each disposed in a different one of the cavities. Each of the filaments is electrically coupled to each other and to an activating voltage source in parallel. Each of the filaments emits a focused electron beam directed to a different predetermined spot on the anode upon application of a predetermined voltage between the cathode and the anode, thereby causing the anode to generate x-rays. Each of the plurality of spaced apart cavities is aimed at the anode so that each predetermined spot on the anode is separated from each other spot by a gap that is not impacted by an electron beam.
