- The most commonly used type of resonator is the AT-cut, where the quartz blank is in the form of thin plate cut as an angle of about 3515' to the optic axis of the crystal. The third essential characteristic of the quartz resonator is related to the stability of its mechanical properties.

Halite Halite forms clear transparent crystals that exhibit perfect cubic cleavage. If you look closely at table salt, the salt is an array of small cubic fragments, the result of halite’s crystal structure and perfect cubic cleavage. Cubic cleavage will be evident in most samples of halite or can be produced by breaking the sample.

Crystal Chemistry Crystal chemistry divides crystal structure into two basic types: homodesmic, or coordination, and heterodesmic. In the homodesmic structure, all of the atoms are bonded identically, the chemical bonds forming the spatial framework. There are no fragments that might be considered molecules. Homodesmic structure is found in diamond and alkali-metal halides.

- Therefore, piezoelectric crystals are cut to a thickness that is 1/2 the desired radiated wavelength. The higher the frequency of the transducer, the thinner the active element. The primary reason that high frequency contact transducers are not produced is because the element is very thin and too fragile.

An Introduction to Synthetic Gem Materials Crystal Pulling or Czochralski process (melt process). Pulling emerged in the early 1900s. In this process, nutrients are melted in a crucible and the synthetic crystal grows from a seed that is dipped into the melt, and then slowly pulled away from the melt as it grows. Gems synthesized by pulling include synthetic alexandrite, chrysoberyl, corundum, and garnet.

Plasma Cutting 101 Cutting thick metal is a little different than cutting sheet metal. Thick metal means slower cutting, wider cut or kerf, more slag remaining (the leftover molten metal on the edge of the cut), and longer pierce time. If you are piercing the metal, the 45° angle is vital.

Facet Facet arrangements. Of the hundreds of facet arrangements that have been used, the most famous is probably the round brilliant cut, used for diamond and many colored gemstones. This first early version of what would become the modern Brilliant Cut is said to have been devised by an Italian named Peruzzi, sometime in the late 17th century.

Baguette Baguette cut. Often used as accent stones, baguette-cut gemstones are long and rectangular with octagonal corners. A baguette-cut diamond will generally have 14 facets, giving it high lustre but less brilliance than a traditional brilliant cut. [www.thejewelleryeditor.com/glossary/baguette-cut/]

Cuts of Gem Stones Each cut is called a facet. Thus the term multi faceted originates as a gem term describing complex cuts of gem stones that can show more than one face or facet. The reason for gem stone cuts varies from stone to stone. For the diamond, cutting the gem stone is needed to get the brilliance the diamond is famous for. Other reasons for cutting a gem stone is to achieve a particular shape or style for a specific piece of jewelry. There are many types of gem stone cuts in common use today.

Types and Forms of Quartz Crystals Types and Forms of Quartz Crystals. MOST OF THE QUARTZ in the Ouachita Mountains occurs as milky veins. The principal difference between milky quartz and clear rock crystal is the presence of innumerable microscopic bubbles or fluid-filled cavities in the milky quartz. These cavities scatter the light that otherwise would pass through a clear crystal.
