The invention relates to a 
cold cathode electronic gun used in cooperation with a vacuum 
radiation source device. The 
cold cathode electronic gun comprises an electronic gun shell and a base of the electronic gun shell. The 
cold cathode electronic gun is provided with an upper 
electrode plate with array-type 
electron beam output holes, a lower 
electrode plate and a cold 
cathode, and further provided with a 
microwave input layer which is provided with an interaction cavity and arranged between the upper 
electrode plate and the lower electrode plate. Due to the fact that the 
microwave input layer is additionally arranged between the upper electrode plate and the lower electrode plate of a traditional cold 
cathode electronic gun, a cavity formed above the cold 
cathode in the middle section of the 
microwave input layer is used as the interaction cavity, the cold cathode is embedded in the bottom of the interaction cavity, the array-type 
electron beam output holes which are smaller than the microwave length in size are formed in the position, right opposite to the interaction cavity, of the upper electrode plate, and therefore the cold cathode electronic gun has the advantages of being small in space of the 
beam wave interaction cavity, low in 
power consumption, capable of being integrated, small in size, high in response speed and capable of feeding in microwaves with different frequencies as needed to modulate the current transmitted by the cold cathode so as to generate 
electron beams with different frequencies and strengths, providing an electron transmitting source for the mini-type electron vacuum device, effectively expanding the application range and the like.
