  • Abstract
    The possibility of using langasite (LGS) single crystals in bulk acoustic wave (BAW) resonators for time-compensated crystal oscillators (TCXOs) and voltage-compensated crystal oscillators (VCXOs) is explored. Tables presenting a number of fundamental physical properties of LGS crystals and resonators manufactured is given. The dependencies of frequency-temperature characteristics, frequency coefficients, motional parameters, and resonance spacing vs. piezoelectric element orientation and size for different modes of vibration are analyzed. It is shown that LGS resonators have considerably smaller motional inductance and capacitance ratio values and size compared to quartz crystal units. Possible parameter values of LGS resonators operating in flexure, longitudinal, face-shear, and thickness-shear modes are discussed
