The present invention purposes to provide a THz-wave generator capable of generating a THz-wave stably and efficiently, and particularly, to provide the THz-wave generator which is stable against a frequency shift of a laser source and which can easily vary the frequency of the THz-wave. A THz-wave generator, for inputting a laser beam from a light source unit A including a laser source to a THz-wave generating element D, and generating a THz-wave (fT) from the THz-wave generating element, wherein a light circulating unit including an SSB optical modulator, and wavelength selecting means C are disposed between the laser source A and the THz-wave generating element D, the laser beam is guided into the light circulating unit, a specific wavelength lightwave is selected out of lightwaves having a plurality of wavelengths generated in the light circulating unit by the wavelength selecting means, and the specific wavelength (f0, fn) lightwave is input to the THz-wave generating element.
