An object of the invention is to provide a high-resolution transmission type
X-ray
tube. With an X-ray imaging device according to the present invention, electron
lens forming part 100A includes a central axis part 131, which is
formed at the interior of a yoke 130, and an outer peripheral part 133,
which defines the outer periphery of yoke 130. A part of a front end part
135 of central axis part 131 becomes a magnetic pole 110 that
is positioned at the side of an electron gun. A first opening 111 is defined
by magnetic pole 110. A part of a front end part 137 of outer peripheral
part 133 becomes a magnetic pole 120 that is positioned at the side
of a target 300. A second opening 121 is defined by magnetic pole
120. The value of diameter d2 of second opening 121 is greater
than the value of diameter d1 of first opening 111.
