  • Abstract
    Summary form only given. We, for the first time, developed fully vacuum-sealed X-ray tubes with carbon nanotube field emitters. The specially designed brazing process has been adopted for the vacuum sealing of the X-ray tube. The fabricated two types of X-ray tubes showed a good operation with a high stability and long lifetime.
