A thermoelectric conversion element includes: a thermoelectric member that is columnar; an insulator formed around the thermoelectric member; and a metal layer formed continuously on an edge surface of the thermoelectric member and an edge surface of the insulator. An edge portion of the thermoelectric member and an edge portion of the insulator define a gap covered with the metal layer. The inner portion of the gap covered with the metal layer is a void.

Thermoelectric conversion element and thermoelectric conversion module

A thermoelectric conversion element includes a thermoelectric member that is columnar and an insulator formed around the thermoelectric member. Particles are enclosed between the thermoelectric member and the insulator.

Thermoelectric conversion module

A method of thin film formation includes: preparing a substrate; forming a thin film above the substrate; and crystallizing the thin film by irradiating the thin film with a light beam, in which the crystallizing includes steps of: crystallizing the thin film in a first region into a first crystalline thin film by irradiating the first region while scanning a first light beam relative to the substrate, the first region including at least one of: edge portions of the substrate; and a region through which a cutting line passes when the substrate is cut; and subsequently crystallizing the thin film in a second region into a second crystalline thin film by irradiating at least the second region while scanning a second light beam relative to the substrate, and the thin film has a higher absorption ratio of the second light beam than that of the first crystalline thin film.
