In addition, this dissertation also derive a generalized theoretical model of passive temperature compensation for composite bulk mode resonators, capable of further controlling its temperature coefficient of frequency (TCf) Such performance improved results might benefit the future integrated micromechanical oscillator design for timing or frequency reference in consumer electronics.
