Design, fabrication and testing of a micro thermal conductivity detector (¿TCD) with a detection limit of 260 parts per billion (hexane in helium), no excess dead-volume, low power consumption, fast response time (150 ¿sec) and low sensitivity to flow rate is described herein. Significantly, this ¿TCD is shown to have a linear response and high sensitivity across a 104-fold concentration range; to the best of our knowledge this linearity and sensitivity has not been previously shown for a¿TCD. The thermal conduction properties of several configurations are examined to identify their influence on performance.
