Abstract

There is provided herein a thermocouple and method of manufacturing same, which is preferably created by imprinting one or more non-conductive surfaces such as polyethylene with inks made of two different finely powered metals, the two constituent metals being chosen such that when they are placed in contact with each other thermocouple effect is created. According to a preferred embodiment, a finely powered metal ink containing, for example, iron would first be silk screened onto a substrate. Then a second metal ink would be screened onto the same substrate so as to intersect the first, the second metal being preferably being some combination of nickel and copper. By attaching electrodes to this screened combination, it will be possible to monitor temperature changes by measuring the current generated thereby. By printing multiple thermocouples onto a surface a module for heating or cooling (e.g. a Peltier module) can be formed.
