A thermoelectric module of the invention includes: first and second thermoelectric elements; a first electrode having a plate-shaped body whose first surface is bonded to a first end surface of the first thermoelectric element and a first end surface of the second thermoelectric element; a second electrode bonded to a second end surface of the first thermoelectric element; and a third electrode bonded to a second end surface of the thermoelectric element. The first electrode includes: a first cutout formed at a first side in a width direction; and a second cutout formed at a second side in the width direction. In the width direction, at least one of the first cutout or the second cutout is present in a section between the first side and the second side of the first electrode.

Thermoelectric module

A thermoelectric module includes a thermoelectric element and an electrode. The thermoelectric element has a rectangular end face. The electrode includes a first joint portion joined to a center portion of the end face; and a second joint portion joined to one end and a third joint portion joined to the other end. Each of the second joint portion and the third joint portion is disposed at a distance from each of four corners of the end face. A joint length in the second direction orthogonal to the first direction between the first joint portion and the end face is longer than each of a joint length in the second direction between the second joint portion and the end face, and a joint length in the second direction between the third joint portion and the end face.
