Known as a weak topological insulator (TI), BiSe structurally exhibits alternating stacks of quantum spin Hall bilayer (Bi-2) and three-dimensional TI layer (Bi2Se3). The low lattice thermal conductivity of BiSe due to the presence of Bi(2)bilayers promises potentially good thermoelectric performance. Herein, the thermoelectric properties of nominal Bi1-xCuxSe samples were studied as the functions of the content of Cu additive and temperature. It is found that Cu additives in BiSe (1) profoundly affect the texture of densified polycrystalline samples by inclining the crystallographicc-axis parallel toward the pressure direction in the densification process, (2) increase considerably the effective mass and thus the Seebeck coefficient, and (3) yield point defects and Cu-Se secondary phases that effectively scatter heat-carrying phonons. As a result, the optimized electrical and thermal properties yield a thermoelectric figure of merit ofzT similar to 0.29 in Bi1-xCuxSe (x = 0.03) sample at 467 K in parallel to the pressure direction and azT similar to 0.20 at 468 K in the perpendicular direction.
