A linear microwave plasma source comprises a leaktight chamber (10) under negative pressure and a microwave injection guide (12) that ends in a 90° elbow (13) opening perpendicularly into the chamber, a leaktight microwave window (15) being placed between the microwave injection guide (12) and the 90° elbow (13) such that they cause ionization of the gas in a zone (35) of electron cyclotron resonance located a few centimeters inside the elbow (13) that is under negative pressure. First and second permanent magnets (13, 17) are disposed on either side of said window (15), said magnets (16, 17) being installed with alternating polarity. A sputtering target (21) is located inside the plasma stream and electrically insulated from the chamber and charged with a negative polarity, and means (27) for injecting gas for controlling the ionic species of the plasma stream are provided.
