Title:
THERMOELECTRIC CONVERSION ELEMENT AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SAME
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2013/047253
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A thermoelectric conversion element is provided with a thermoelectric conversion element main body and a spacer layer provided on a surface of the thermoelectric conversion element main body. The thermoelectric conversion element main body is provided with a magnetic body layer having magnetization in at least one in-plane direction and an electromotive body layer provided on the magnetic body layer and including material having spin orbital interaction. The spacer layer is provided with a low thermal conductivity layer, which is formed of a material with a relatively low thermal conductivity, and a plurality of high thermal conductivity bodies that are dispersed within the low thermal conductivity layer and are materials with relatively high thermal conductivity. More phonons are conducted by the plurality of high thermal conductivity bodies than by the low thermal conductivity layer.
