Abstract :
First measurements of the phase noise versus the radius of curvature of SC-cut resonators are given. Resonators with adherent electrodes are investigated and compared with unelectroded resonators. The phase noise measurements are obtained with a crystal resonator tester specifically designed to assist in the characterization of quartz crystal resonators
