ルタ、遅延線等として広く用いられている。When an appropriate electrode is formed on a piezoelectric material such as quartz or lithium tantalate (LiTaOi) and an alternating current electric field is applied to this electrode, stress with a frequency equal to the applied electric field is generated in the piezoelectric material.
When the frequency of the applied electric field matches the natural frequency of the piezoelectric material, resonance occurs and strong vibrations are obtained. Oscillators that utilize this phenomenon have high performance and are widely used as oscillation circuits, filters, delay lines, etc. of communication devices.

ある。Figure 2 shows the damping characteristics (a) of the piezoelectric vibrating element with W/H-0,5, the damping characteristics (rl) of the piezoelectric vibrating element with W/H-0,7, and the damping characteristics (rl) of the piezoelectric vibrating element with W/H-0,7. The damping characteristics (c) of the piezoelectric vibrating element with a value of 9 and the damping characteristics (d) of the piezoelectric vibrating element with a value of W/H-1,0. In (a) to (d), the vertical axis represents the amount of attenuation (dB). ), the horizontal axis is the frequency (MHz),
Note that the reason why the minimum value of W/H is set to 0.5 is because if it becomes less than that, the width of the piezoelectric body exceeds the processing limit and becomes small.

果として共振時の周波数飛び現象が発生し難くなる。From FIG. 2(d), the spurious Ab of the piezoelectric vibrating element with W/H=1.0 occurs at about 5.7 Mllz, and the level difference from the resonance peak Aa is about 15 dB. It is a well-known phenomenon that for conventional piezoelectric vibrating elements with W/H = 1.1, the level difference increases when spurious Ab moves to a higher frequency band, and as a result, when resonance occurs The frequency jump phenomenon becomes less likely to occur.

.. The spurious Ab of the piezoelectric vibration element of 0.9 is 6 M
It has moved to a frequency band higher than Ilz, and the level difference between the resonance peak Aa and the spurious signal Ab is 15 dB or more.
そのため、該圧電振動素子における共振時の周波数飛び

発生し難くなる。Therefore, frequency jumps during resonance in the piezoelectric vibrating element are even more difficult to occur than in the piezoelectric vibrating element of W/H-1,0.

でよいため、小形化し得た効果を有する。As explained above, according to the present invention, the spurious is moved away from the oscillation frequency and the level difference between the resonance peak and the spurious is expanded, so that the piezoelectric vibrating element is stabilized, and the length of the piezoelectric body is reduced to that of a conventional one. When they are the same, the width is narrow (
This has the effect of making it more compact.
