Zusammenfassung:Intrinsic antiferromagnetic Mn2 Bi2 Te5 crystals, a candidate of dynamical axion insulator proposed theoretically recently, were successfully grown by the self-flux method. The crystal structure and chemical composition of Mn2 Bi2 Te5 crystals were experimentally substantiated. Temperature-dependent resistivity of Mn2 Bi2 Te5 shows a metallic behavior ( d ρ / d T > 0 ) when temperature T > 25 K and a subsequently semiconductorlike feature (dρ/d
