X-Ray Generation by Mev Electrons in Silicon: Temperature, Tilt and Thickness Dependence
Abstract
dc:descriptionWhen relativistic electrons strike a single crystal target, sharp peaks are observed in the x-ray spectrum generated. One type of radiation, called coherent bremsstrahlung, results from coherent electron scattering by atoms arranged on the crystal lattice. The other type of radiation is channeling radiation. The electrons channeling near major crystal axes enter quantized orbits and emit x-ray photons as a consequence of transitions between orbits.
