Abstract
Provided is a thermoelectric conversion module which achieves, in the vicinity of an element/high-temperature-side electrode bonded part, stress relaxation or strain relaxation within the element and at the bonded part, on which stress is concentrated. A thermoelectric conversion module comprising: electrodes arranged on its high-temperature side and low-temperature side; and P-type and N-type thermoelectric conversion elements connected to the electrodes via a bonding layer; wherein an area where the high-temperature-side electrode is connected to an end face of the P-type or N-type thermoelectric conversion element is smaller than an area where the low-temperature-side electrode is connected to an end face of the P-type or N-type thermoelectric conversion element. For this reason, an incision part is formed by removing the outer periphery of the high-temperature-side bonded part of each thermoelectric conversion element or a portion of the high-temperature-side electrode facing the outer periphery of the high-temperature-side bonded part of each thermoelectric conversion element.
