A miniature gas chromatography (GC) system was designed and developed using silicon micromachining and integrated circuit (IC) processing techniques. The micromachined gas chromatography (MMGC) system is composed of a miniature sample injector incorporating a 10-mu m-long sample loop; a 0.9-m-long, rectangular-shaped (300 mu m width and 10 mu m height) capillary column coated with a 0.2-mu m-thick copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) stationary phase, and a dual-detector scheme based upon a CuPc-coated chemiresistor and a 125-mu m-diameter thermal conductivity detector (TCD) bead. Silicon micromachining was employed to fabricate the interface between the sample injector and the GC column, the GC column itself, and the dual-detector cavity. A novel processing technique was developed to sublime a homogeneous CuPc stationary-phase coating on the GC column walls. The complete MMGC system package is approximately 4 in. square and 100 mils (2.5 mm) thick. [96]
