A simple method for SC-cut resonator design.
This paper presents a design method utilizing simple semi-empirical equations for round, plano-convex SC-cut resonators. These equations were developed on the basis of experimental results collected over a long period relating SC-cut resonator design and performance covering a wide range of frequencies, radii of curvature, and plate diameters. The equations make possible the design of fundamental, third overtone, and fifth overtone resonators. An example calculation of resonator parameters and comparison with experimental results are also presented.
