Abstract
There is provided an inductively heating aerosol-generating device configured to generate an aerosol by heating an aerosol-forming substrate, the device including a receiving cavity configured to receive the aerosol-forming substrate; an induction source configured to generate an alternating electromagnetic field; and a susceptor assembly configured and arranged to inductively heat the aerosol-forming substrate within the receiving cavity under influence of the alternating magnetic field generated by the induction source, the susceptor assembly including a first susceptor and a second susceptor, the first susceptor including a first susceptor material having a positive temperature coefficient of resistance, and the second susceptor including a second ferromagnetic or ferrimagnetic susceptor material having a negative temperature coefficient of resistance. There is also provided an aerosol-generating system including the aerosol-generating device and an aerosol-generating article for the aerosol-generating device, the article including an aerosol-forming substrate.
