Abstract

See full text

A thermoelectric chip with exposed surfaces of N-type and P-type semiconductor elements on its top and bottom surfaces is prepared by arranging the semiconductor elements in a matrix manner such that each of the N-type semiconductor elements is disposed adjacent to the P-type semiconductor element through a space, and filling the space with a first resin material having electrical insulation. A metal layer is formed on each of the exposed surfaces of the semiconductor elements. Then, first electrodes are formed on the top surface according to a first circuit pattern. Similarly, second electrodes are formed on the bottom surface according to a second circuit pattern different from the first circuit pattern. An electrical insulation sheet of a second resin material containing a ceramic powder with high thermal conductivity is bonded to the top and bottom surfaces to obtain the thermoelectric module.
