Description

technical field

[0001] The present invention relates to thermoelectric devices. The invention also relates to a thermoelectric assembly having such a thermoelectric device. Background technique

[0002] A thermoelectric element of a thermoelectric device includes a thermoelectrically active semiconductor material that converts a temperature difference into a potential difference, ie, voltage, and vice versa. In this way, heat flow can be converted into electric current and vice versa. Thermoelectric elements are based on the Peltier effect when converting electrical energy into heat and the Seebeck effect when converting heat into electrical energy. Within a thermoelectric module, p-doped and n-doped thermoelectric elements are interconnected with each other. A plurality of such thermoelectric elements is usually connected to a thermoelectric generator, which can generate an electric current from a temperature difference in combination with a corresponding heat flow. If ...
