ABSTRACT:
A rotating anode structure for an X-ray tube is provided, having a lightweight target anode. A carbon-carbon composite target substrate has constituents and weave geometries. A refractory metal focal track layer is deposited on the substrate to produce X-rays. An interlayer is disposed between the focal track layer and the substrate to relieve thermal expansion mismatch stresses between the carbon-carbon composite anode target substrate and the refractory metal focal track layer. The interlayer is a rhenium interlayer and the focal track layer is typically a tungsten-rhenium focal track layer.
