130kV Microfocus X-Ray Source
The Hamamatsu microfocus X-ray source uses an X-ray tube with an extremely
small focal spot of 10 microns in diameter. This gives a sharp, clear image even at
magnified image. When used with the C7876 series X-ray I. I. camera unit, high-
quality X-ray images can be taken in fine detail even under high magnification.
Besides the 130kV model, Hamamatsu offers various models of microfocus X-ray
sources, including 80kV, 100kV and 150kV models.
X-ray Image Intensifier Camera Unit (3”/1.8” Dual Mode)
C7716, C7716-10
The C7716 series X-ray image intensifier (I. I.) camera unit now offers greatly
improved X-ray detection efficiency even at low energy levels. This improvement
stems primarily from a built-in X-ray image intensifier having an extremely thin
aluminum input window. Its thickness is only 0.3mm or less, virtually at the limit of
present technology providing excellent X-ray transmittance and low scattering.
The results are sharp, clear, high-quality images taken at low energy X-ray levels
down to several keV which penetrate plastic (PET) materials.
X-ray Image Intensifier Gate Unit C7077
The C7077 X-ray image intensifier gate unit consists of a gateable 4-inch X-ray
image intensifier (X-ray I. I.) with a relay lens and a gate power supply. Since the X-
ray I. I. itself has a gating function, still X-ray images of a high-speed moving object
can be taken by inputting an external trigger signal while using a normal X-ray
source. This means there is no need for a pulsed X-ray source. Gating can be
performed by a TTL level trigger pulse, allowing easy gate control.
FOS (Fiber optic plate coated with X-ray scintillator)
The FOS is an optical device for X-ray imaging, fabricated by coating an X-ray
scintillator material over a fiber optic plate consisting of tens of million glass fibers
of several micrometers each in diameter. The FOS provides higher sensitivity and
resolution than currently used sensitized paper films and also allows real-time
digital radiography when directly coupled to a CCD. The fiber optic plate used in the
FOS has excellent X-ray absorption characteristics, so that X-rays which penetrate
the X-ray scintillator and directly enter the CCD are minimized to less than 1%. This
protects the CCD from "deterioration" and "noise increase" caused by X-ray
irradiation, assuring a long service life and maintaining high image quality.
