  • Abstract
    The correct orientation of specimens cut from Rochelle salt crystals for use as piezoelectric resonators having a pure longitudinal mode of vibration is developed from Voigt´s theory of piezoelectricity, and the frequency of resonance of these specimens is derived from the constants of the material. Some practical details are given regarding the growing of the crystals and grinding of the specimens.
