Ordinary ovens, including infrared ones, cook from the outside inwards. The heat is conducted to the interior of the food, and the outside is cooked more than the inside, so you get a browned crust. Microwaves penetrate the food to a depth of up to several cm., depending on what sort of food it is. So the outside and inside are cooked more or less simultaneously and equally.

The infrared oven already exists. In fact, it existed before the microwave did. Your conventional oven produces infrared rays when it heats its element.
