Zusammenfassung:In a method of manufacturing a monocrystalline crystal, in particular a sapphire, a monocrystalline seed crystal is arranged in a base region of a crucible with a cylindrical jacket-shaped crucible wall or forms a base of the crucible and a crystallographic c-axis of the seed crystal is aligned corresponding to a longitudinal axis of the crucible extending in the direction of the top of the crucible wall, whereupon a base material is arranged above the seed crystal in the crucible and melted, crystal growth taking place progressively in the direction of the c-axis by crystallization at a boundary layer between melted base material and seed crystal.
