ABSTRACT:
A new target anode for use in x-ray equipment where it is subjected to high speed rotations and thermal stress, wherein the target anode is comprised of a substrate which has coated thereon an x-ray emissive, high-Z metallic material or metal carbide which functions as the focal track, wherein a surface on the substrate to which the high-Z metallic material or metal carbides is deposited and bonded consists of directionally oriented fibers of high thermal conductivity, and wherein the directionally oriented fibers are bonded to the substrate and facilitate bonding between the substrate and the x-ray emissive, high-Z metallic material or metal carbide.
