Thickness-Shear Vibration of Rotated Y-cut Quartz Plates with Relatively Thick Electrodes of Unequal Thickness

Jiashi Yang, Honggang Zhou, and Weiping Zhang

ABSTRACT An exact solution is obtained from the three-dimensional equations of linear piezoelectricity for thickness-shear vibrations of rotated Y-cut quartz plates with relatively thick electrodes of unequal thickness at its major faces. Effects of the shear stiffness of the electrodes on resonant frequencies are examined.
