PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an ionization sputtering vacuum pump in which a reduction of evacuation speed in an ultrahigh vacuum region is minimized by introducing thermal electrons from an extra-ultrahigh vacuum region. SOLUTION: In the ionization sputtering vacuum pump, 2n (n=1, 2, 3 ...) pieces of plate magnetron type ion pump elements are arranged in opposition, probability of collision of ions and electrons due to a high-frequency electric field generated by supplying high-frequency power to a high frequency coil arranged at an intermediate part of above is improved, and ionization of a dielectric is promoted, a cylindrical anode is fitted at the intermediate part, thermoelectrons are supplied from a thermoelectron source arranged at a periphery to face to the anode, and discharge in an ultrahigh/extra ultrahigh vacuum region is made to continue.
