Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

In a thermoelectric conversion element comprising a thermoelectric conversion layer formed by using a thermoelectric conversion material, the thermoelectric conversion material includes a polythiophene polymer, which includes a main chain made of a repeating unit represented by the following formula (1), and has a side chain R in a regiorandom array with respect to the main chain, a carbon nanotube, and a non-conjugated macromolecule. In Formula (1), R represents an alkyl group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms.
