Advances in Development of Quartz Crystal Oscillators at Liquid Helium Temperatures

This work presents some recent results in the field of liquid helium {bulk acoustic wave} oscillators. The discussion covers the whole development procedure starting from component selection and characterization and concluding with actual phase noise measurements. The associated problems and limitations are discussed. The unique features of obtained phase noise power spectral densities are explained with a proposed extension of the Leeson effect.

About Quartz Crystal Resonator Noise: Recent Study

The first step, before investigating physical origins of noise in resonators, is to investigate correlations between external measurement parameters and the resonator noise. Tests and measurements are mainly performed on an advanced phase noise measurement system, recently set up. The resonator noise is examined as a function of the sensitivity to the drive level, the temperature operating point and the tuning capacitor.
