CRYSTAL MOUNTING Filed Aug. 15, 1946 ATTORNEY Patented Sept. 20, 1949 CRYSTAL MOUNTING Lawrence Le Roy Dimmiclr, Haddon Heights, N. J., assignor to Radio Corporation of Amerlost, a corporation of Delaware Application August 15, 1946, Serial No. 690,624
13 Claims.
This invention relates to a new and useful piezoelectric crystal mounting, and more particularly to the type having non-conducting electrodes.
An object of this invention is to provide a rigid mounting with a flexible support for high frequency thickness, shear crystals in which the electrodes are made of quartz, or a non-conductor with approximately the same coefiicient of expansion as quartz, and with metallic coatings on the front face of the electrodes with portions of this coating thicker than in the central area.
The electrodes forming the crystal holder of this invention are preferably made the same size as the oscillating crystal and lapped fiat. A small terminal spot of metal is fired on the back face adjacent to the edge and covering a small area of the edge. A metallic-coating is applied to the central area of the front face either by evaporation, by chemical deposit, or by a silk screen method. The metallic coating extends out to the edge to make contact with the fired metal terminal spot on the back face. Another metallic coating is applied on the front face adjacent to the edge either in a continuous band, in segments, or spots of any shape, and coated thicker than that of the coating on the central area to furnish a small airgap between the central area coating and the oscillating crystal. This edge coating does not make electrical contact with the central area. The crystal holder assembly includes two of the above mentioned electrodes; a piezoelectric crystel is placed between the two electrodes with the front face next to the crystal. This crystal holder assembly is clamped to a base with coil spring terminal clips which are soldered to the contact pins of the holder The spring terminal clips are secured to the fired metal spot on the electrodes with a conducting cement.
This invention will be more clearly understood by referring to the accompanying drawing, in which:
Fig. l is a front elevation of the electrode of this invention;
Fig. 2 is across-section of Fig. 1;
Fig. 3 is a rear elevation of Fig. 1;
Fig. 4 is an end elevation of the crystal holder of this invention;
Fig. 5 is a front elevation of Fig. 4;
Fig. 6 is a front elevation of another modification of the invention;
Fig. '7 is a cross-section of Fig. 6;
Fig. 8 is a front elevation of a still further modification of the invention; and
Fig. 9 is a cross-section of Fig. 8.
same manner as the central area 2.
Referring now in detail to Figs. 1, 2 and 3 of the drawing, the non-conducting disc electrode I is made of quartz, ceramic or similar materials having essentially the same coeflicient of thermal expansion as the quartz plate or crystal element. In order that the disc I can act as a crystal holder electrode, it has located thereon a circular metallized portion 2 which is applied on the central area by either chemical deposition, evaporation, or by being fired on by a silk screen process. The peripheral edge of disc I has located thereon four metal segments 3, l, 5 and 6. The segments 3, 4, 5 and 6 are also metallized in the However, the segments are coated thicker than that of the central area 2, and this area 2 serves as one of the crystal electrodes. The increased thickness of the segments furnishes an air-gap between the central area and the crystal element, and therefore does not make electrical contact therewith. The electrical contact between the central area 2 and each one of the terminals of the crystal holder is made by means of an outwardly extended strip or path 1 which is provided with a terminal edge area 8 indicated between the dotted line in Fig. 1 and the full line in Fig. 3.
The crystal holder mounting is shown by Figs. 4 and 5 wherein the crystal element I0 is supported between two electrode discs I and IA. The crystal element I0 is very thin relative to its diameter. The two surfaces are ground slightly convex to insure that the crystal will oscillate, as I have found that on very thin crystals, if the surfaces are not parallel or slightly concave, the crystal element will not properly oscillate. A base ll of metal (such as Kovar) is provided with two terminal studs I2 and I3 which extend through base Ii. The terminal studs are insulated by a glass bead construction which includes glass terminal beads l4 and IS. The terminal studs, the base, and the glass beads, or any similar insulating material, must have approximately the same coefilcient of thermal expansion in order that they will bond properly together to insure a hermetically sealed joint. If desired, the base I I could be made of insulating material with terminal studs secured to the base by any suitable means, such as having molded integral therewith suitable terminal bushings or by the use of suitable threaded studs and locking nuts. The assembly comprising crystal element I0 and electrodes l and IA is clamped with coil spring clips 3 and are secured to the flred metallic spot 8 with any suitable conducting cement. The holder is ,inclosed by a casing member lC which is secured to the base II by soldering at S, or by any other suitable means to hermetically seal the crystal therein.
Another modification of the non-conducting electrodes of this invention is shown by Figs. 6 and 7, wherein the non-conducting disc 20 has a metallic center coating 2i applied to the front face in a similar manner to that of coating 2 described above. A plurality of small circular spots 22 to 21, inclusive, are located symmetrically around the face of disc 20, adjacent to the edge. The spots 2|, although shown circular, may be of any shape or configuration. The airgap between the crystal can be obtained by a non-conducting coating in an area adjacent to the edge, or by having a raised portion which can be molded by using a ceramic or a similar non-conductive disc. The circular electrode portion 2| is provided with an outwardly extending strip or path 28 which extends over the edge of disc 20 and terminates in a semi-circular portion of disc 32 and carries over to the opposite face where it terminates in a semi-circular terminal portion 34. The crystal element of this modification is supported in a similar manner to that shown by Figs. 4 and 5, the terminal springs l6 and I! being connected to the opposite semicircular metallic portions 34. The peripheral edge portion 32 is of greater thickness than the central electrode portion 3|, in order to provide a proper air-gap for the crystal. The complete crystal holder is inclosed within a casing similar to that indicated at iC in Figs. 4 and 5.
