  • Thermoelectric module and method of fabricating the same
    Patent number: 8921679
    Abstract: The disclosure provides a thermoelectric module and a method for fabricating the same. The thermoelectric module includes a plurality of p-type and n-type segmented thermoelectric elements disposed in a planar array, wherein the p-type and n-type segmented thermoelectric elements are coupled in series via a plurality of first electrodes and second electrodes. Each segmented thermoelectric element includes at least two vertically homogeneous thermoelectric segments, and at least two adjacent thermoelectric segments have a fusion-bonding layer therebetween. The fusion-bonding layer includes a tin-containing material and a plurality of spacers disposed among the tin-containing material, wherein the melting point of the spacers is higher than the liquidus temperature of the tin-containing material.
