The invention discloses a generating device of a surface electromagnetic wave
radiation source, which can be applied to the technical field of electromagnetic
waves. The
plasma excitation unit is used for generating
plasma, and the
plasma acceleration unit comprises an
electron acceleration power supply, a
cathode end face, a slow wave circuit, a plurality of insulation spacers, a plurality of acceleration poles and an output end face. An
electron beam channel is formed in the middle area of the upper surface of the slow wave circuit and the middle area of the lower surface of the
cathode end face, the insulation spacers, the acceleration poles and the output end face, and meanwhile the insulation spacers and the acceleration poles are arranged between the
cathode end face and the output end face at intervals. The speed of the plasma in the
electron beam channel output by the plasma excitation unit is adjusted through the
plasma acceleration unit, so that the electromagnetic wave
radiation source under the target frequency, the target bandwidth or the target power can be output, and the electromagnetic wave
radiation source with
high frequency, wider bandwidth and high power can be obtained.
