Abstract

This atomization unit is provided with a liquid holding member that holds an aerosol source, a heating element that atomizes the aerosol source held by the liquid holding member, and a cover member that restricts the amount of the aerosol source supplied to the liquid holding member. The liquid holding member has a shape that extends along a prescribed direction. At least a portion of the inner side surface of the liquid holding member in an orthogonal direction which is orthogonal to the prescribed direction is in contact with or in close proximity to the heating element. At least a portion of the outer side surface of the liquid holding member in the orthogonal direction is covered by the cover member.
