Thermoelectric module

A thermoelectric module comprising:

• a heat transmission member;
• a cooling member;
• a plurality of thermoelectric elements, wherein the plurality of thermoelectric elements is disposed between the heat transmission member and the cooling member;
• a first electrode layer, wherein the first electrode layer is disposed between the heat transmission member and the plurality of thermoelectric elements;
• and
• a second electrode layer, wherein the second electrode layer is disposed between the cooling member and the plurality of thermoelectric elements,
• wherein the plurality of thermoelectric elements comprises a first P-type thermoelectric element and a first N-type thermoelectric element, the first P-type thermoelectric element being adjacent to the first N-type thermoelectric element,
• wherein a height of the first P-type thermoelectric element is different than a height of the first N-type thermoelectric element, and
• wherein the second electrode layer has at least two bent portions and extends between the first P-type thermoelectric element and the first N-type thermoelectric element.
