The invention relates to a thermoelectric element having at least one thermocouple comprising an n-doped and a p-doped thermal leg made of semiconductor material, wherein the thermal legs extends between a hot and a cold side of the thermoelectric element and different temperatures can applied and tapped between the hot and the cold side. In order to create a thermoelectric element having a high thermal power density that nevertheless ensures sufficient mechanical stability using less semiconductor material, according to the invention the thermoelectric effect and the support function of the block between two components is split. The support function is performed by a multipart support, while the thermoelectric effect is initiated by thermal legs disposed on the support, in particular designed as a thin film. |
