Quartz strip resonators as a temperature sensor.
The miniature frequency-temperature sensor in the form of a small quartz strip vibrating in the thickness-shear mode with the resonant frequency in the range from 4 to 8 MHz is considered. Y-cut strips rotated in the range from 0 degrees to 27 degrees are the subject of the study. The temperature coefficients of the resonance frequency for the different rotation angles are given. The different temperature dependence of the resonant frequency of the quartz temperature sensors vibrating on the fundamental and harmonic frequency of the thickness-shear modes is pointed out.
