Abstract:
1. A device for switching/generating X-rays for diagnosis and curing, comprising: an electron beam generation device which accelerates a pulse electron beam to transmit the beam through a predetermined rectilinear orbit; a laser generation device which generates a pulse laser light; a laser light introduction device which introduces the pulse laser light onto the rectilinear orbit so as to collide with the pulse electron beam; a metal target which generates a particular X-ray by collision with the pulse electron beam; and a target moving device which moves the metal target between a collision position on the rectilinear orbit and a retreat position out of the orbit, wherein at the collision position, a collision surface of the metal target is positioned spatially at the same position as a collision point between the pulse electron beam and the pulse laser light, the metal target is positioned at the retreat position, and the pulse electron beam collides head-on with the pulse laser light on the rectilinear orbit to generate a monochromatic hard X-ray for diagnosis, the metal target is positioned at the collision position, and the pulse electron beam collides with the metal target to generate the particular X-ray from the same collision point, and the X-rays for diagnosis and curing are emitted from the same light source position of the same apparatus.
