Description

The global Carbon Nanotube X-Ray Tube (CNT X-Ray Tube) market size is expected to reach $ 101 million by 2032, rising at a market growth of 11.9% CAGR during the forecast period (2026-2032).

The repetitive heating and cooling of the filament for X-ray exposures is not necessary with a Carbon Nano-tube (CNT) field emitter, which is driven by an applied electric field, not by temperature, and is thus known as a ‘cold cathode.’ In a CNT, the current is exactly and instantaneously controlled by an applied voltage. The configuration of a CNT field emitter differs significantly from a thermionic filament. The CNT emitter used in an Xray tube consists of a large number of tall, thin, carbon nano-tubes arranged vertically on a conductive substrate. The carbon nano-tubes are only nanometers in width, which means that the tips are very sharp and this small, ‘sharp’, radius of curvature is important for concentrating the electric field so that emission of electrons will occur. The CNTs are arranged in the manner similar to a‘bed of nails’. In 2024, global Carbon Nanotube X-Ray Tube (CNT X-Ray Tube) production reached approximately 4,278 units, with an average global market price of around US$ 9,680 per unit. The upstream raw materials are mainly carbon nanomaterials, and market providers include Jiangsu Cnano Technology, LG Chem, Cabot Corporation and Shandong Dazhan Nano. Downstream includes Medical, Security Inspection, etc. Global annual production capacity is expected to be approximately 5,400 units in 2024.

The material and structure are upgraded, high-purity thin-walled carbon nanotubes are adopted as electron emitters, and vertical array growth is realized by chemical vapor deposition technology, so that electron emission uniformity and current density are obviously improved. Multi-focus array integration technology has become the mainstream. Hundreds of independently controllable focuses can be accommodated in a single lumen. It supports dynamic adjustment of ray intensity and focuses size. The focal spot accuracy reaches submicron level, and the resolution exceeds 5μm, meeting the requirements of semiconductor defect detection. Cold cathode technology realizes microsecond pulse beam emission, which is thousands of times faster than traditional hot cathode and reduces power consumption. Lithium battery can drive portable equipment. The service life is significantly extended, and the maintenance cost of equipment is greatly reduced.
