A new type of rotating anticathode X-ray generator has been developed, in which the electron beam up to 120keV irradiates the inner surface of a U-shaped Cu anticathode. A high-flux electron beam is obtained by optimizing the geometry of the combined function bending magnet. In order to minimize the sizes of the X-ray source, the electron beam is focused in a short distance by the combined function bending magnet, of which geometrical shape was determined by simulation with the codes of Opera-3D, General Particle Tracer (GPT) and CST STUDIO. The result of simulation clearly shows that the role of combined function in the bending magnet and the steering magnet is important to focus the beam in small sizes. FWHM sizes of the beam were predicted by simulation to be 0.45mm (horizontal) and 0.05mm (vertical) for a beam of 120keV and 75mA of which effective brilliance is about 500kW/mm2 with the supposition of a two-dimensional Gaussian distribution. The beam focus sizes on the target will be verified in the experiments by using the high-voltage power supply for the X-ray generator improved from 60kV to 120kV and 75mA.
