X-ray generator which uses a pyroelectric crystal to generate electrons

BUYER'S GUIDE

BACK



The COOL-X is a novel, miniature X-ray generator which uses a pyroelectric crystal to generate electrons that produce X-rays in the target material (Cu). The hermetically sealed package has a thin beryllium window which allows the X-rays to be transmitted. The COOL-X does not use radioisotopes or high power X-ray tubes. It is a self contained, solid state system which generates X-rays when the crystal is thermally cycled.

Features
Miniature size: 0.6" dia x 0.4" (15 mm dia x 10 mm)
Low power: < 300 mW
Runs on standard 9 V battery
Variable end point energy: up to 35 kV
Peak x-ray flux: 108 photons per second (equivalent to a 2 mCi source)
Solid state: Pyroelectric crystal
No radioactive sources
