Binary compound FeGe hosts multiple structures, where skyrmion lattice emerges in the chiral B20 phase and antiferromagnet with charge density wave shows up in the hexagonal phase. Here, we synthesized monoclinic FeGe films which are ferromagnetic with Curie temperature as high as 800 K. By low temperature transmission electron microscope, lattice reconstructions in both real and reciprocal space were captured at 100 K whereas no observable transition was observed in either transport nor magnetic characterizations. We infer the lattice distortion may be induced by charge density wave. Our work suggests FeGe films an ideal platform for understanding the intertwining of charge density wave, lattice distortion and magnetism, and paves the way to the tuning charge density wave by means of lattice engineering.
