An ion generator, which generates cations and anions respectively through cation and anion generating units independently installed so as to prevent the extermination of the cations and anions due to reaction therebetween just after the generation of the cations and anions, thereby being capable of generating a large quantity of the cations and anions. The ion generator for sterilization includes a rectifying device and first and second ion generating units The rectifying device rectifies a half wave of the alternating current power into a half-wave alternating current power having a positive polarity (+) and a half-wave alternating current power having a negative polarity (-). The first ion generating unit is operated by the half-wave alternating current power having the positive polarity (+), and generates cations. The second ion generating unit is operated by the half-wave alternating current power having the negative polarity (-), and generates anions. |
