Abstract
An aerosol-generator for an aerosol-generating device is provided, including: a surface acoustic wave atomiser including: a substrate including an active surface defining an atomisation region, and at least one transducer positioned on the active surface to generate surface acoustic waves for defining an acoustic wavefront on the active surface; and a supply element arranged to supply a liquid aerosol-forming substrate to the atomisation region so that liquid aerosol-forming substrate in the atomisation region defines an interface between the active surface, the liquid aerosol-forming substrate, and the atmosphere, in which the at least one transducer and the supply element are configured so that a shape of the acoustic wavefront at the interface corresponds to a shape of at least part of the interface. An aerosol-generating device including the aerosol-generator is also provided.
