[time-nuts] Mounting quartz crystals with epoxy: help needed

[Richard (Rick) Karlquist]

I'm looking for information about mounting (packaging) quartz
crystals with conductive epoxy such as:

1.  Recommended type of epoxy.
2.  Curing time and temperature.
3.  Surface preparation of the gold.
4.  Experts/consultants in this area you could recommend.

(Note:  this refers to mounting the quartz blank in a
package; not mounting a packaged device on a PC board, etc)

Can anyone help me out?

Thanks in advance.
