Abstract
Systems and methods for improving x-ray sources with switchable electron emitters. Improved systems may use the functionality of the switchable electron emitters in various configurations to provide power regulation, multidimensional analysis, and electron beam forming so as to increase the durability and the reliability of the system. Cooling mechanisms may be used to further protect the anode from deterioration over time.
