METHOD OF PRODUCING THERMOELECTRIC CONVERSION DEVICE

摘要

A method for producing a thermoelectric module comprises steps of positioning electrodes (4) on a pair of current-supplying/pressing members (2) arranged to face each other, at their surfaces facing each other; arranging a plurality of thermoelectric elements (3) to be interposed between the electrodes (4); and bonding the electrodes (4) and the thermoelectric elements (3) by supplying an electric current to pass through the electrodes (4) and the thermoelectric elements (3) while pressing the electrodes (4) and the thermoelectric elements (3) by means of the current-supplying/pressing members (2), wherein the method further comprises a step of forming an intermediate layer (5) containing an electroconductive metal powder and having elasticity, between each of the electrodes (4) and the thermoelectric element (3) to be bonded thereto.
