Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/138076
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
There is provided an aerosol-generating device (101) for heating a liquid aerosol-forming substrate. The aerosol-generating device (10) comprises an aerosol generator (4) for generating an aerosol from a liquid aerosol-forming substrate, the aerosol generator (4) comprising an ultrasonic transducer (10) and a plurality of metallic nanoparticles arranged to receive light from a light source (5) and generate heat by surface plasmon resonance.
