A high dose output, through transmission target X-ray tube and methods of use includes, in general an X-ray tube for accelerating electrons under a high voltage potential having an evacuated high voltage housing, a hemispherical shaped through transmission target anode disposed in said housing, a cathode structure to deflect the electrons toward the hemispherical anode disposed in said housing, a filament located in the geometric center of the anode hemisphere disposed in said housing, a power supply connected to said cathode to provide accelerating voltage to the electrons.

Nano granular materials (NGM) are provided that have the extraordinary capability to conduct current in a 100 fold current density compared to high Tc superconductors by charges moving in form of Bosons produced by Bose-Einstein-Condensation (BEC) in overlapping excitonic surface orbital states at room temperature and has a light dependent conductivity. The material is disposed between electrically conductive connections and is a nano-crystalline composite material. Also provided are electrical components comprising NGM and methods and arrangements for making it by corpuscular-beam induced deposition applied to a substrate, using inorganic compounds being adsorbed on the surface of the substrate owing to their vapor pressure, and which render a crystalline conducting phase embedded in an inorganic insolating matrix enclosing the material.
