Tuning fork type piezoelectic oscillatory sheet, its mfg. method and piezoelectric device

Abstract

The tuning fork type crystal vibrating piece (14) is constituted like this, by wet etching the Y axis of its crystal axis, the X axis and the Z axis correspond to the length direction, the width direction and the thickness direction of the vibrating arms (16a), (16b) For the oriented crystal substrate, grooves (18a) and (18b) in the longitudinal direction are arranged on the main plane of the vibrating arm. , the left and right stiffnesses in the width direction of the vibrating arm are balanced, and the bending motion of the vibrating arm is stabilized. In the manufacturing process of the tuning fork type piezoelectric vibrating plate, the dislocation of the position in the width direction of the upper and lower main planes (17a) and (17b) of the vibrating arm caused by the misalignment of the photomask, on the cross section in the width direction of the vibrating arm, in the thickness direction The centers of gravity M1 and M2 of the upper and lower parts divided into two equal parts are adjusted on the same straight line perpendicular to the main plane. By adjusting the relative positions of the grooves (18a) and (18b) in the width direction, vibration due to vibration Displacement in the thickness direction of the arm is eliminated and suppressed, and distortion energy loss due to vibration leakage is prevented. High stability is achieved by suppressing the CI value to improve its performance.
