Recently, two-dimensional ferromagnetism in the family of chromium compounds CrXTe3(X= Si, Ge) has attracted a broad research interest. Despite the structural similarity in CrTe6octahedra, the size effect of inserted Ge or Si dimer contributes to significant differences in magnetism. Here, we report a new family of quaternary van der Waals ferromagnetic material CrGeδSi1-δTe3(δ less then 0.2) synthesized by flux method. Ge substitution in Si site results in the lattice expansion, further increasing the Curie temperature and reducing t
