Piezoelectric Ceramic Resonators

Part of the book series: Topics in Mining, Metallurgy and Materials Engineering ((TMMME))

Abstract

Piezoelectric ceramic resonators are discussed in details including calculation of impedance/admittance for each resonator type, resonance and antiresonance conditions and parameters of equivalent electronic circuit parameters. Resonators of bar, plate, disc and ring shape with various electrode pattern and poling directions are covered for all common one-dimensional as well as special vibration modes in detailed calculations. Some of the miscellaneous resonators (cylindrical or spherical shape) are reviewed from literature references. All resonators are demonstrated by experimental data of impedance spectra with identified and calculated vibration mode parameters. Example of higher order mode theory for coupled vibration is also given for reference.
