Abstract
A method of manufacturing a thermoelectric conversion material includes a sintering step. In the sintering step, a sintered body of a sintered material () is obtained by applying a voltage to a conductive mold () in a first direction so as to cause energization under the condition in which an insulating layer () is disposed in at least a portion between an inner wall () of the mold () and the sintered material () and the insulating layer () keeps having insulating properties. Here, the sintered body is a thermoelectric conversion substance.
