摘要
Silicon micromechanical resonators have been designed to have a quality factor (Q) that is a strong function of temperature. This is an ideal sensor for the temperature of the resonator-it is instantaneous, consumes no power, and indicates the temperature of the resonator structure with high sensitivity. The authors present a practical implementation of an oscillator system using these resonators with a temperature resolution of better than 0.002 degrees C. The Q(T) signal is uniquely suited for implementing feedback control of the resonator temperature, thereby stabilizing the frequency silicon micromechanical resonators and enabling their use in high-stability frequency reference applications.
