Abstract
The main object of the present invention is to provide thermoelectric conversion materials having a high thermoelectric conversion performance and excellent mass productivity. The thermoelectric conversion materials have a core-shell structure with a plurality of core parts and shell parts for covering the core parts. The plurality of core parts are independent of each other and the shell parts are provided continuously such that the shell part of one core part is continuous with the shell part of a different core part.
