The influence of the reflected waves at the bonding boundary on the resonance waveform and temperature characteristics was investigated using α-quartz (QZ). The double-layered resonator specimen was fabricated using 129.55°Y- and 0°Y-cut QZ substrates with the thickness ratio x=0.520. The temperature characteristic at the range from 100°C to 300°C was deviated from the calculated values estimated by the equations considering thickness and electric flux density ratio proposed in the previous work, and the resonant waveform of the specimen was deteriorated as compared with that of single-layer resonators. In order to clarify these phenomena, the phase matching conditions and total amplitude in the specimen were examined. As a result, it was clarified that increase of the amplitude in the layer with lower acoustic impedance was affected to the temperature characteristic, and acoustic losses due to reflection / transmission at the bonding boundary was affected to the total amplitude of resonance.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
