In various embodiments of the present invention, a thermoelectric device is provided. The thermoelectric device includes one or more thermoelements provided for transferring heat across the ends of the thermoelectric device. A method for making the thermoelectric device includes forming a metal substrate, and depositing one or more thermoelectric films on the metal substrate. Thereafter, one or more bumps are provided on one of the one or more thermoelectric films. Deposition of the one or more thermoelectric films on the metal substrate and the provision of the one or more bumps on the thermoelectric film result in the formation of a thermoelement.
