The invention discloses a terahertz wave radiation source based on a graphene material, relates to a terahertz emission source, and belongs to the technical field of terahertz waves. The basic main body material is graphene and a modified graphene material thereof. The main structure mainly comprises three parts, namely, a semiconductor base layer constructed by graphene and the modified graphenematerial thereof, a transition transmission interaction layer formed by a transition metal compound, and a graphene magnetic field emission layer formed by graphene and a composite material thereof. The invention provides a real terahertz wave source, the output frequency completely covers the terahertz wave range of 0.1-10THz, and terahertz waves with the average power of milliwatts can be emitted even under the 24V direct-current voltage. The radiation source is simple in structure, light, high in thin film degree, wide in working range, high in conversion efficiency far superior to that ofthe existing terahertz wave radiation source and completely suitable for large-scale production and application, and has far-reaching influence on expanding the cognitive dimension and depth in the fields of spectroscopy, material science, biology, medical imaging, environmental science, information science, astrophysics, plasma physics and the like.
