The frequency-temperature analysis equations of piezoelectric plates with Lee plate theory
1Epson Palo Alto Lab., CA.
Abstract:
Frequency-temperature analysis theory of crystal plates based on the incremental field theory (IFT) and the Mindlin plate theory have been widely used in the vibration analysis of crystal resonators subject to temperature change. As one of the two major plate theories for the resonator analysis, the Lee plate theory based on the trigonometric series expansion of displacements has been extensively used for both analytical and numerical analyses of quartz resonators, and efforts have also been made in correcting and perfecting the theory for much broader applications. In this paper, the earlier frequency-temperature analysis equations based on the IFT is further extended to the trigonometric series expansion in a systematic manner. By incorporating the frequency-temperature analysis into the Lee plate theory, the complete analysis of crystal resonators can be made in a consistent way. The thickness-shear and flexural vibration equations have been compared with the Mindlin plate theory to demonstrate the similarity and consistency.
