A ternary compound semiconductor $Al_{x}$-Ga/1-x/Sb crystals which have energy gap from 0.7eV to 1.6ev at room temperature with the composition ratio were grown by using the vertical Bridgman method. The characteristics of $Al_{x}$-Ga/1-x/Sb were investigated in this study. The lattice constants of $Al_{x}$-Ga/1-x/Sb crystals with the composition ratio were appeared from 6.096$\AA$ to 6.135$\AA$ with the composition ratio. The electrical properties of the $Al_{x}$-Ga/1-x/Sb crystals measured the Hall effect by van der Pauw method at the magnetic field of 3 kilogauss and at room temperature. The resistivity of Te-doped $Al_{x}$-Ga/1-x/Sb crystals increased from 0.771 $\Omega$-cm to 5 $\Omega$-cm at room temperature with increasing the composition ratio. The mobility of Te-doped $Al_{x}$-Ga/1-x/Sb crystals varied with the composition ratio x, within the following three different regions, such as GaSb-like (0$\leq$x$\leq$0.3), intermediate (0.3$\leq$x$\leq$0.4) and AlSb-like (0.4$\leq$x$\leq$1).eq$1).
