Abstract

See full text

A piezoelectric quartz shear-mode resonator includes plasma etched quartz tethers, each including a mount. The tethers are for mounting the resonator to a semiconductor substrate for the purpose of isolating the thermally-induced stress from the mounts from the active resonating region, wherein the quartz tethers have rounded corners.
