ABSTRACT:
Flat, transparent slabs of vitreous silica of optical quality are produced by melting granular starting material in a vacuum by means of an electrical heating system. The starting material is melted while sustaining a heat flow from the top to the bottom of the crucible. The bottom of the crucible is made permeable to gases. The heat isolation power of the crucible wall increases from the bottom to the top of the crucible.
