FIELD: power industry.
SUBSTANCE: thermoelectric element includes at least one thermocouple and one pn-junction. Thermocouple includes the first material with positive Zeebeck coefficient and the second material with negative Zeebeck coefficient. The first material (1) selectively contacts the p-area (4) of pn-junction (3) through metal conductor (6). The second material (2) selectively contacts the n-area (5) of pn-junction (3) through metal conductor (7).
EFFECT: higher efficiency coefficient.
