Abstract
An electronic cigarette includes a main body and a microwave heating module disposed in the main body. The microwave heating module includes a shielding sleeve, a strip of cotton, and a microwave source. The strip of cotton is disposed in the shielding sleeve. The shielding sleeve is disposed above the microwave source. In a power-on state, the microwave source emits microwave. The microwave is released into the shielding sleeve to heat and atomize e-liquid adsorbed on the strip of cotton to produce vapor for user's inhaling.
