Abstract

The properties of X-ray emission from a pyroelectric accelerator based on ferroelectric ceramics have been experimentally studied, including the maximum energy of X-ray photons and their maximum yield generated by accelerated electrons at various pressures of residual gas in the generator chamber. The maximum X-ray yield and maximum energy of X-ray photons and accelerated electrons have been observed at a residual-gas pressure of around several millitorr.
