As shown in FIG. 5, when the bending radius is 5cm and the device is bent in the A-A '(axial) and B-B' (radial) directions, respectively, the internal resistance change rate of the thermoelectric device is within 1.8% after 1000 times of bending. Fig. 6 shows the relationship between the internal resistance of the thermoelectric device and the bending radius, and the smaller the bending radius, the greater the rate of change of the internal resistance of the thermoelectric device. Along the direction B-B', when the bending radius reaches 3cm, the internal resistance change rate reaches 3.6 percent at most.
