Abstract
Skull melting method can be a good candidate for growing oxide single crystals with high quality and for mass production because of its low production costs and high yield through recycling of crust. In this study, rutile single crystals were frown by the skull melting method and ingot characteristics with the variation of different growth conditions has been investigated. Conditions for high quality rutile ingot growth were used for producing cold-crucible size of ${\Phi}12cm{\times}H14cm$, capacity of 3000 pF tank condenser, work frequency of 2.84 MHz, melt-dwelling time of 9hrs and growing speed of 2 mm/h.
