Provided are a flexible thermoelectric conversion device having high thermoelectric performance and capable of imparting a sufficient temperature difference in an in-plane direction to the thermoelectric elements inside the thermoelectric conversion module therein, and a method for producing the device. The flexible thermoelectric conversion device includes a thermoelectric conversion module having P-type thermoelectric elements and N-type thermoelectric elements alternately arranged to be adjacent to each other on one face of a film substrate, and includes a high thermally conductive layer composed of a high thermally conductive material in a part of a position on one face of the thermoelectric conversion module, which is on the side of the other face of the film substrate, among both faces of the thermoelectric conversion module, in which the thermal conductivity of the high thermally conductive layer is 5 to 500 (W/m·K), and the production method produces the device.
A flexible thermoelectric conversion device, comprising:
A method for producing a flexible thermoelectric conversion device which comprises a thermoelectric conversion module comprising a P-type thermoelectric element and a N-type thermoelectric element alternately arranged on one face of a film substrate to be adjacent to each other, and a high thermally conductive layer composed of a high thermally conductive material in a part on at least the other face of the film substrate, in which a thermal conductivity of the high thermally conductive layer is from 5 to 500 (W/m·K);
