Method of manufacturing thermoelectric power generation unit
 A thermoelectric power generation unit comprises a plurality of dissimilar thermoelectric structures (20, 21) laid in alternating layers. Adjacent thermoelectric bodies incorporated in each of the thermoelectric structures are connected together in series. Respective thermoelectric structures are fabricated by the steps of forming a stripe-shaped pattern on a substrate (10) using a photosensitive resin (12), forming a polymer film on the underside of the substrate, forming first thermoelectric bodies (15) and second thermoelectric bodies (17) by plating on an electrode film (11) inside openings of the photosensitive resin, coating the first thermoelectric bodies (15) and second thermoelectric bodies (17) with a thermosetting resin (16), dissolving the substrate (10) and electrode film (11) thereafter.
