ABSTRACT:
A thermoelectric conversion device of the present invention includes a first electrode, a second electrode, and a layered oxide arranged between the first electrode and the second electrode. The first electrode, the layered oxide, and the second electrode are arranged in this order so that a multilayer is formed. The layered oxide is formed of electric conductive layers and electric insulating layers being alternately arranged. The C axis of the layered oxide is perpendicular to the interface between the first electrode and the layered oxide. The area of the second electrode is smaller than that of the first electrode.
