A new ternary compound Al0.33DyGe2has been synthesized and studied from 298 K to773 K by means of X-ray powder diffraction technique. The crystal structural refinement of Al0.33DyGe2has been performed by using the Rietveld method. The ternary compound Al0.33DyGe2crystallizes in the orthorhombic of the defect CeNiSi2-type structure (space group Cmcm, a=0.41018(2)nm, b=1.62323(6)nm, c=0.39463(1)nm, Z=4 and Dcalc=8.004 g/cm3). The average thermal expansion coefficients αa, αband αcof Al0.33DyGe2are 1.96×10−5K−1, 0.93×10−5K−1and 1.42×10−5K−1, respectively. The bulk thermal expansion coefficient αVis 4.31×10−5K−1. The resistivity is observed to fall from 387 to 308 µΩ cm between room temperature and 25 K.
