Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A flat emitter 55 for uses within an x-ray tube is formed of an electron emissive material that includes one or more stress compensation features 300 capable of reducing the total stress in the flat emitter 55 due to thermal expansion and/or centrifugal acceleration force. The features of the emitter 55 for reducing the total stress in the flat emitter 55 are formed directly on the emitter, are formed on the support structure for the emitter and connected to the emitter, or a combination thereof.
