Abstract (en)

This invention relates to a heater for an aerosol generating device configured to operate with a consumable (1) comprising an electrically conductive heating layer of aerosol precursor material (1), the heater comprising: 2 electrically conductive layers (4, 5) facing each other and spaced apart from each other so as to sandwich said electrically conductive heating layer of aerosol precursor material (1), wherein: a first one (4) of the 2 electrically conductive layers (4, 5) comprises at least 1 electrode (41 to 44), a second one (5) of the 2 electrically conductive layers (4, 5) comprises at least 2 electrodes (51 to 54) which are separated from each other by an electrically non-conductive space (9) and which face at least partially one electrode (41 to 44) of said first electrically conductive layer (4).
