Dysprosium monotelluride is a metallic substance with one valence electron per formula unit belonging to the conduction band. It crystallizes in the defected NaCl-type structure (a= 0.6070 nm) with cation deficiency in the metal sublattice. AC and DC susceptibilities exhibit a maximum at 15 K and a second maximum at higher temperatures which position is field dependent.
