Abstract The galvanomagnetic and magnetic properties of novel diluted magnetic semiconductors Pb1-x-yCaxCryTe (x=0.06-0.20, y=0.003-0.045) have been investigated. Temperature dependencies of the resistivity and the Hall coefficient have a metallic character indicating the pinning of Fermi level by the chromium impurity level on the background of the conduction band states. Magnetization curves display a clear hysteresis loop over the whole temperature range investigated. The Curie temperature, determined from the temperature dependencies of magnetization, achieves 345 K. Possible mechanisms of ferromagnetic ordering were discussed.
