Abstract
We are developing a revolutionary new type of x-ray source that is designed to be more than 10X brighter than the brightest rotating anode x-ray source currently available. Additionally, the new x-ray source will have substantially wider selection of characteristic x-ray energies than are abailable using the current x-ray source technologies. The outstanding performance is achieved with patent pending x-ray source technology that incorporates the outstanding thermal and material properties of diamond as part of the microstructured anode, creates large thermal gradients within the microstructure and; and accumulates x-rays generated from a linear array of x-ray sub-sources.
