Abstract
By coupling the molten zone of a semiconductor rod, which is subjected to a crucible-free zone melting operation, to the operating coil used for inductively heating the molten zone, the frequency of the generator energizing the coil is determined. At constant geometry, this frequency is a measure of the molten zone volume and can be used for control purposes. A high-frequency cable disposed between the generator and the operating coil is fully matched, so that substantially only effective power has to be transmitted.
