Abstract :
The patented new type of X-rays target is considered in the report. The main concept of the target consists in the sandwich structure of deposited coating from materials with high Z on the substrate with low Z, high thermal conductivity and high thermal stability. The target presents a multiple layers system. The thermal conditions for X-rays target are discussed. The experimental results for Ta target on the Al and Cu substrates are presented. This type of target allows improving the cooling system.
