ABSTRACT:
A quartz crystal element in which unwanted response is suppressed, comprising a thickness shear quartz blank such as an AT-cut type. An area where an amplitude of unwanted response may be strong can be eliminated from the quartz blank by forming the quartz blank into a substantially hexagon. Preferably, each pair of three pairs of opposite sides are mutually parallel and one of the pairs is parallel to the longest diagonal line of the quartz blank. For an AT-cut type of quartz crystal element, the direction of the longest diagonal line of the quartz blank is within the range of 28.degree..+-.15.degree. or 118.degree..+-.15.degree. from the Z' axis direction of the quartz blank, and the quartz blank is held at the ends of the longest diagonal line.
