THERMOELECTRIC CONVERSION MATERIAL, AND THERMOELECTRIC CONVERSION DEVICE, THERMOCHEMICAL BATTERY AND THERMOELECTRIC SENSOR HAVING SAID MATERIAL

摘要

Provided are a thermoelectric conversion material having a considerably increased Seebeck coefficient, and a thermoelectric conversion device, a thermochemical battery and a thermoelectric sensor which include the material. The thermoelectric conversion material of the present invention comprises a redox couple and a trapping compound by which only one of the redox couple is selectively trapped at low temperature and released at high temperature.
