PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To efficiently manufacture a thermoelectric conversion module with the high occupancy of a thermoelectric conversion material, low resistance, and an excellent characteristic.SOLUTION: A joint body 13 with a P-type thermoelectric conversion material 11 and an N-type thermoelectric conversion material 12 joined via an insulating material 14a is plated so as to form plated electrodes 16, each of which is constituted of a plated film, in other than the regions joined via the insulating material concerning the P-type thermoelectric conversion material and the N-type thermoelectric conversion material. Then, the joined body with the plated electrodes formed thereon is thermally processed under an oxidizing atmosphere. Besides, the plated electrode formed on the P-type thermoelectric conversion material and the plated electrode formed on the N-type thermoelectric conversion material are electrically connected via metallic plates 15. The joined body with the plated electrodes formed thereon is thermally processed at the temperature of 400-500°C. The thermoelectric conversion material made of an oxide is used as the P-type thermoelectric conversion material and the N-type thermoelectric conversion material. |
