Micro-structure for thermoelectric generator Seebeck effect and method of manufacturing such a microstructure.

The method of manufacturing a micro-structure (10) includes thermoelectric: ▪ the formation of an insulating support (12) having a first (18) and a second connection area (20); ▪ the formation on the support (12) of a first set of conductive elements or semi-conductors (14) extending parallel, and in a first direction, the first (18) to the second connection area (20 ), and having a first Seebeck coefficient; ▪ the formation on the support (12) a second set of conductive or semiconductor elements (22) electrically isolated from the first set, hearing in parallel, and in a second direction, different from the first, of the first (18) to the second connection area (20) and having a second Seebeck coefficient different from the first; and ▪ performing in the first and second terminating regions (18, 20) of electrical connection elements (24), each of the latter electrically connecting at least one element (14) of the first set with at least one member ( 22) of the second set.
