Abstract

The present invention may be used for production of electric energy, cooling and heating. Generally, the invention is related to the devices, generating electric energy without the need of creation of outside temperature difference. The invention utilizes first electrode (1), second electrode (2) and potential barrier (3) and is characterized by the following: the first electrode (1) containing electrons of conductivity with energy in interval with maximal energy (Emaxl+Efl) and minimal energy (Eminl+Efl), the second electrode (2) containing electrons of conductivity with maximal energy (Emax2+Ef2), and potential barrier (3) with height (Ep +EfI) and width Lp, letting through predominantly electrons with higher energy from the first electrode (1) to the second electrode (2). The first electrode (1), the second electrode (2), the potential barrier (3) and the corpus (4) are thermally connected. Conductors (5) connect the first electrode (1) and the second electrode (2) with output terminals (6).
