Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP4856282
Kind Code:
B1
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To arrange a Thomson element on the inner surface of a wall or a window of a building or a moving vehicle.SOLUTION: A Thomson element made up of a metallic thin film, a semiconductor film, and a metallic film is formed by growing a laminated film made up of a metal and an n-type semiconductor on a wall or window of a building or a moving vehicle, and a current is passed through the Thomson element so that the generation or absorption of heat is caused by a Seebeck coefficient difference. The Thomson element can constitute an air conditioner made up of transparent metallic films and an opaque semiconductor film, or opaque metallic films and a transparent semiconductor film, or opaque metallic films and an opaque semiconductor film. The thin films for forming the Thomson element can be formed in large quantity on a large area in a short time at a dramatically reduced production cost, and thus its industrial value is extremely high.
