Patent number: 11875986Abstract: The light source contains a gas-filled chamber with a plasma sustained by a focused beam of a continuous wave laser. The means for plasma ignition is a solid-state laser system which generates two pulsed laser beams: in a free running mode and in a Q-switched mode. The solid-state laser system contains single active element and its optical cavity is equipped with a Q-switch overlapping only part of a cross section of the intracavity laser beam. One pulsed laser beam provides an optical breakdown after which another pulsed laser beam ignites the plasma, the volume and density of which are sufficient for stationary sustenance of the plasma by the focused beam of the continuous wave laser. EFFECT: simplification of the design of the light source, increase of its reliability and ease of use, creating on this basis of powerful electrode-free high-brightness broadband light sources with high spatial and energy stability.Type: GrantFiled: October 7, 2022Date of Patent: January 16, 2024Assignees: ISTEQ B.V., ISTEQ GROUP HOLDING B.V.Inventors: Dmitriy Borisovich Abramenko, Robert Rafilevich Gayasov, Denis Alexandrovich Glushkov, Yurii Borisovich Kiryukhin, Vladimir Mikhailovich Krivtsun, Aleksandr Andreevich Lash

Patent number: 11869742Abstract: An X-ray beam is generated in an interaction zone of an electron beam and a target, the zone being an annular layer of a molten fusible metal in an annular channel of a rotating anode assembly. The channel has a surface profile which prevents slopping of the molten metal in the radial direction and in both directions along the rotation axis. The liquid-metal target forms a circular cylindrical surface due to the centrifugal force acting thereupon. The linear velocity of the target is preferably higher than 80 m/s; in a vacuum chamber, a changeable membrane made of carbon nanotubes is installed in the X-ray beam path and a protective screen with apertures for electron beam entry and X-ray beam exit is arranged around the interaction zone. The technical result consists in an X-ray source with increased power, brightness, lifetime and ease of use.Type: GrantFiled: April 26, 2020Date of Patent: January 9, 2024Assignees: ISTEQ B.V., ISTEQ GROUP HOLDING B.V.Inventors: Aleksandr Yurievich Vinokhodov, Vladimir Vitalievich Ivanov, Konstantin Nikolaevich Koshelev, Mikhail Sergeyevich Krivokorytov, Vladimir Mikhailovich Krivtsun, Aleksandr Andreevich Lash, Vyacheslav Valerievich Medvedev, Yury Viktorovich Sidelnikov, Oleg Feliksovich Yakushev, Denis Alexandrovich Glushkov, Samir Ellwi, Oleg Borisovich Khristoforov
