Abstract
The nonuniformity of QCMs' mass sensitivity distribution is a disadvantage to practical applications. Through theoretical calculations, we found that common ring electrode QCMs could obtain approximately uniform sensitivity distribution by carefully selecting the inner and outer diameters and mass loading factor of the electrode. A series of experiments were carried out using 10 MHz ring electrode QCMs with an inner diameter of 2 mm, an outer diameter of 5 mm, and a loading factor R of 0.0044. The experimental results proved that its mass sensitivity distribution is approximately uniform. This special designed ring electrode QCMs is suitable and convenient for highly accurate measurements.
