Vibrations of Crystal Plates with Surface Structures - For Resonator and Sensor Applications

This book is mainly on the theoretical analysis of vibrating crystal plates for the quartz crystal resonator and sensor applications. The frequency and mode effects of different surface structures on either or both sides of the crystal plates are the main concerns in this book. These effects are useful to the improvement of existing quartz crystal resonators, and especially useful to the design of new resonator-based sensors.
