Quartz crystal resonator g sensitivity measurement methods and recent results

A technique for accurate measurements of quartz crystal resonator vibration sensitivity is described. The technique utilizes a crystal oscillator circuit in which a prescribed length of coaxial cable is used to connect the resonator to the oscillator sustaining stage. A method is provided for determination and removal of measurement errors normally introduced as a result of cable vibration. In addition to oscillator-type measurements, it is also possible to perform similar vibration sensitivity measurements using a synthesized signal generator with the resonator installed in a passive phase bridge. Test results are reported for 40 and 50 MHz, fifth overtone AT-cut, and third overtone SC-cut crystals. Acceleration sensitivity (gamma vector) values for the SC-cut resonators were typically four times smaller (5x10(-10) per g) than for the AT-cut units. However, smaller unit-to-unit gamma vector magnitude variation was exhibited by the AT-cut resonators. Oscillator sustaining stage vibration sensitivity was characterized by an equivalent open-loop phase modulation of 10(-6) rad/g.

Cooled, ultrahigh Q, sapphire dielectric resonators for low-noise, microwave signal generation

Ultra-high Q, X-band resonators, used in a frequency discriminator for stabilization of a low-noise signal generator, can provide a means of obtaining significant reduction in phase noise levels. Resonator unloaded Qs on the order of 500 K can be obtained in sapphire dielectric resonator (DR) operating on a low-order (i.e. TE(01)) mode at 77 K and employing high-temperature superconducting (HTS) films installed in the DR enclosure covers. Rigorous analysis for the determination of resonator frequency, modes, and unloaded Q have been carried out using mode matching techniques. Trade-off studies have been performed to select resonator dimensions for the optimum mode yielding highest unloaded Q and widest spurious mode separation. Field distributions within the resonator have been computed to enable practical excitation of the required mode. The results of both analysis and prototype device evaluation experiments are compared for resonators fabricated using enclosures consisting of conventional, metal sidewalls and covers employing HTS films as a function of cover conductivity.
