Ternary semiconductor $Al_{x}$G $a_{1-x}$ Sb crystals which have energy gap of 0.7eV-1.6 eV at room temperature according to the composition ratios were grown by the vertical Bridgman method. The characteristics of the crystals were investigated by XRD, HRTEM and Hall effect. The lattice constants of $Al_{x}$G $a_{1-x}$ Sb crystals were varied from 6.096A over .deg. to 6.135A over .deg. with the composition ratio x. The Hall effect of the $Al_{x}$G $a_{1-x}$ Sb crystals were measured by van der Pauw method with the magnetic field of 3 kilogauss at room temperature. The resistivities of Te-doped $Al_{x}$G $a_{1-x}$ Sb crystals were increased from 0.071 to 5 .OMEGA.-cm at room temperature according to the increment of the composition ratio x. The mobilies of $Al_{x}$G $a_{1-x}$ Sb crystals varied with the composition ratio x resulted in the following three different regions of GaSb-like (0.leq.x.leq.0.3), intermediate (0.3.leq.x.leq.0.4) and AlSb-like (0.4.leq.x.leq.l).q.l).q.l).q.l).
