Following the first experimental realization of intrinsic ferromagnetism in 2D van der Waals (vdW) crystals, several ternary metal chalcogenides with unprecedented long-range ferromagnetic order have been explored. However, the synthesis of large-area 2D ternary metal chalcogenide thin films is a great challenge, and a generalized synthesis has not been demonstrated yet. Here, a quick and scalable synthesis of epitaxially aligned ferromagnetic ternary metal chalcogenide thin films (Cr2 Ge2 Te6 , Cr2 Si2 Te6 , Mn3 Si2 Te6 ) is reported. The synthesis is based on the flux-controlled surface diffusion of Te on metal (Cr, Mn)-deposited wafer (Ge, Si) substrates. Magnetic anisotropy study of the epitaxial ternary thin films reveals the intrinsic magnetic easy axis; out-of-plane direction for Cr2 Ge2 Te6 and Cr2 Si2 Te6 , and in-plane direction for Mn3 Si2 Te6 . In addition to the synthesis, this work creates an opportunity for transfer-free device fabrication for realizing magnetoelectronics based on the electrical control of both charge and spin degrees of freedom in 2D ferromagnetic semiconductors
