Abstract

The present invention provides a piezoelectric resonator that suppresses occurrence of secondary vibration. Crystal oscillators of excitation electrodes are formed respectively on two surfaces of a crystal sheet with thickness-shear vibration as the main vibration. A secondary vibration suppression portion with a crystallographic axis being inverted by heat treatment is disposed at a part where the secondary vibration such as profile-shear vibration, flexure vibration or the like is generated in the crystal sheet. Ideally, a plurality of secondary vibration suppression portions are disposed symmetrically relative to the excitation electrodes. Since the oscillation frequency of the secondary vibration at the part is shifted to a low frequency side, negative effect on the main vibration of the crystal oscillators is suppressed. Therefore, a crystal oscillator having stable frequency characteristics can be obtained.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a piezoelectric vibrator that suppresses the occurrence of secondary undulation, an etching amount detection device and an oscillator using the piezoelectric vibrator. Background technique [0002] Piezoelectric vibrators are used in many fields such as electronic equipment, measuring equipment, and communication equipment. However, recently, users have increasingly demanded miniaturization and low price. The fact that oscillators have emerged also makes clear how fierce the competition is. [0003] On the other hand, in piezoelectric vibrators, further improvement in frequency stability is required. In particular, crystal oscillators with AT-cut thickness-shear vibration as the main vibration are widely used because of their good frequency characteristics, but generation of unwanted side vibrations is a problem. As one of the causes of secondary vibration, for example, when thickness shear vibration is the main vibra...
