Abstract
Cartridges for vaporizer devices are provided. In one exemplary embodiment, the cartridge can include a reservoir being configured to contain a liquid vaporizable material that includes at least one ionic component, an airflow tube that extends though the reservoir and defines an airflow passageway therethrough, and first and second electrodes. The airflow tube includes a wicking element that is in fluid communication with the reservoir, in which the wicking element is configured to substantially draw at least a portion of the liquid vaporizable material from the reservoir into the airflow passageway. The first and second electrodes are positioned substantially on or adjacent to opposite surfaces of the wicking element, in which the liquid vaporizable material received within the wicking element is substantially vaporized in response to generation of a potential difference between the first and second electrodes. Vaporizer devices are also provided.
