Bi2Se3, a sister compound of the best room-temperature thermoelectric (TE) Bi2Te3, has been proven to undergo a transition from a rhombohedral phase to an orthorhombic phase by Sb-alloying. Te-free Bi2–xSbxSe3with an orthorhombic structure exhibits excellent TE performance in the midtemperature range. In this work, anisotropic transport properties of bulk polycrystallinen-type Bi2–xSbxSe3(x= 0.8, 1.0) samples near phase transition composition are systematically studied. Due to the similar anisotropic behavior between electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity, the I-doped Bi2–xSbxSe3samples show almost the samezTvalues along the in-plane and out-of-plane directions. Furthermore,n-type I-doped Bi2–xSbxSe3is also prepared by zone-melting in order to further increase the carrier mobility and TE performance. The results show that the increase in thermal conductivity exceeds the enhancement in electrical transport properties, resulting in lowerzTvalues.
