Abstract

See full text

An x-ray source can have a reduced voltage gradient and a consistent voltage gradient, thus allowing less insulation, reduced arcing failure, or both. The x-ray source can comprise a bipolar voltage multiplier and an x-ray tube. The bipolar voltage multiplier can include a negative voltage multiplier and a positive voltage multiplier. An axis extending from an input voltage of the negative voltage multiplier to a negative output bias voltage defines a negative axis. An axis extending from an input voltage of the positive voltage multiplier to a positive output bias voltage defines a positive axis. An angle A1 between the negative axis and the positive axis can be selected for optimal voltage gradient.
