 A new method of production of high-temperature dielectric crystals, including cubic zirconia, glasses and melted ceramic materials, is discussed. The method is based on direct induction melting in a cold container. The physical fundamentals of the technology and equipment are described, and the possibilities and advantages of the new technology are indicated. The properties of the produced materials are discussed. Special attention is given to cubiz zirconia crystals which cannot be produced by other methods.
