We study CdTe:Cr single crystals grown by the physical vapor transport method from pre-synthesized (Cd,Cr)Te alloys with 5 at.% of chromium nominal content. Macrodefects in the form of (111)-oriented thin platelets of dopant-related second phases were detected by scanning electron microscopy patterning of the chemically treated surfaces of the crystals. Magnetic properties of the crystals were investigated by ferromagnetic resonance using X-band Bruker spectrometer (9.43 GHz). Their ferromagnetic resonance spectra show several broad lines, which position depends on the orientation of the sample in relation to the external magnetic field in spectrometer. The angular dependences of ferromagnetic resonance spectra are interpreted in the frame of shape anisotropy of ferromagnetic resonance of the planar defects embedded in a weak magnetic CdTe matrix.
