Conclusions
The quartz resonators described above can be used for investigating certain physical phenomena. Their main advantage consists in their translucence under oscillatory conditions to light, x-ray, and other radiations. For instance, by transmitting light rays through an oscillating quartz crystal it is possible to observe their diffraction on an ultrasonic grid, and by transmitting through that crystal x-rays it is possible to observe the relaxation of microstresses in a crystal lattice after the application of the exciting force is stopped. It would appear that this method may prove useful in investigating problems related to the pressure of light, and the excitation of quartz crystals by an UHF power transmitted through them. The possibility of making highly-sensitive detectors and instruments on this basis is not excluded.
