Outline of Final Research Achievements

We fabricated a modulated X-ray generator combining with Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) and Coniferous Carbon Nano-Structure (CCNS). When the voltage (~100 V) was applied to the GEM electrode, electrons were successfully extracted from the CCNS substrate, and then X-ray was emitted by bombarding the electrons on a target metal. We also demonstrated that the generator was operated as a timing X-ray generator when the 500 ns-gated voltage was applied to the electrode. Finally we optimized the designs of GEM and CCNS for stable operation, and we successfully operated the generator for long term.
