SPIN FLOW THERMAL CONVERSION ELEMENT AND THERMOELECTRIC CONVERSION ELEMENT

摘要

A spin flow thermal conversion element and a thermoelectric conversion element which can thermally generate a spin flow and of which concrete applications can be realized. A temperature gradient forming means for forming a temperature gradient in a thermal spin flow-generating member is provided on the thermal spin flow-generating member made of either of a ferromagnetic substance member and a conductive member containing a ferromagnetic substance.
