Frequency Shift of Thickness-Shear Vibrations of AT-Cut Quartz Resonators Due to a Liquid Layer with the Electrode Stiffness Considered

Yun Jing, Jin Chen, Xiao Chen, and Xun Gong

ABSTRACT Thickness-shear vibrations of an AT-cut quartz resonator due to a liquid layer are studied. Closed form solutions are obtained with electrodes considered. Effect of the shear stiffness of electrodes on frequency shifts is presented.
