Abstract
Provided is an electromagnetic wave generator including: an electromagnetic wave generation section that generates an electromagnetic wave; a high-frequency voltage generation section that generates a voltage applied to the electromagnetic wave generation section; and a transmission line that electrically couples the electromagnetic wave generation section and the high-frequency voltage generation section to each other, in which the electromagnetic wave generation section includes a first electrode, a second electrode, a first conductor that electrically couples the first electrode and the transmission line to each other, and a second conductor that electrically couples the second electrode and the transmission line to each other, one of the first electrode or the second electrode is a reference potential electrode to which a reference potential is applied and the other is a high-frequency electrode to which a high-frequency voltage is applied, a minimum separation distance between the first electrode and the second electrode is 1/10 or less of a wavelength of an output electromagnetic wave, a minimum separation distance between the first conductor and the second conductor is 1/10 or less of a wavelength of an output electromagnetic wave, and the first conductor further includes a coil, and the coil is closer to the first electrode than the transmission line.
