The invention discloses a self-suction type X-
ray generating device and application thereof. The device comprises an insulating shell, a
cathode, an
anode, a grid, at least one adsorption
metal plateand at least one
sputtering metal plate, the
cathode is packaged in the insulating shell and is used for releasing electrons; the
anode is packaged in the insulating shell, the
anode comprises a target body and a
target surface, and electrons released by the
cathode collide with the
target surface to release X-rays; the at least one adsorption
metal plate and the at least one
sputtering metal plate are arranged in parallel, each adsorption metal plate and the
sputtering metal plate adjacent to the adsorption metal plate form one group of
ion sputtering structures, there is at least one group of the
ion sputtering structures, the at least one group of the
ion sputtering structures are located at the at least one side of the cathode, and the plane directions of the at least one adsorption metal plate and the at least one sputtering metal plate are parallel to the
electron release direction of the cathode; and the gate may be disposed on the at least one adsorption metal plate or the at least one sputtering metal plate or disposed separately. By introducing the
ion sputtering structures, residual gas molecules in the X-
ray tube are adsorbed while the X-
ray tube emits, and a better vacuum degree is obtained.
