A thermoelectric device with improved efficiency is provided. In one embodiment, the thermoelectric device includes an electrical conductor thermally coupled to a cold plate and a thermoelement electrically coupled to the electrical conductor. The thermoelement is constructed from a thermoelectric material and has a plurality of tips through which the thermoelement is electrically coupled to the electrical conductor. The thermoelectric tips provide a low resistive connection while minimizing thermal conduction between the electrical conductor and the thermoelement. |
